"This brass tells a botanical story that is very personal to me and rooted in Montreal culture. All the pieces in this collection are inspired by the local flora of the St. Lawrence River banks, collected during my walks throughout this year. I kept a journal of plant rubbings, and this collection is the tangible realization of that diary. Each leaf of the garland is hand-cut and shaped from a sheet of brass. The garland can be hung on the wall or used as a centerpiece for parties."
My name is Sarah Kestenberg, and I'm a self-taught, multidisciplinary artisan from Montreal. I work with paper to create meticulously handcrafted, botanically inspired paper flowers and plants for the home. My earliest memories are of collecting and pressing plants, shells, lichens, and seaweed, and carefully preserving my precious collections.
Today, my process begins with the study of flowers and plants in nature. I responsibly collect specimens of living plants in the spring and summer and carefully document them by making plant prints and smears. Then, through multiple iterations, I create my paper sculptures. To remain true to nature, I intentionally fill my works with imperfections.
I hope that anyone who discovers my works will be drawn by curiosity and pleasantly surprised when they realize it's a paper plant."
