Floral Turquoise, 2024

Acrylic paint on bleached conch shell

Floral Turquoise is a teal shell adorned with intricate mandala patterns and vibrant poinciana flowers. Native to Madagascar, poinciana flowers (Delonix regia) are known for their striking red-orange blossoms and symbolize beauty, pride, and resilience.

Though they are not native to the Bahamas, poincianas are one of my personal favorite flowers.
