① Artwork:
Blackberry
In this oil-on-linen painting of a blackberry, the artist uses a heavy blending technique, giving the image a dreamy, “remembered” quality. Like most of the artworks in this series, this image was painted as a signifier of the artist’s personal history.
Flood’s paintings serve as records of personal sentimentality or significance as well as agents of emotional catharsis, situating her work between a diary entry and an object of worship.

③ Artist:
Ella Rose Flood’s work centers around acts of mourning, memorialization, and the intersectional feelings that emerged when she experienced the sickness and death of someone very close to her—all while constantly confronting her own chronic illness. Her paintings serve as records of personally significant moments, objects and symbols—not to mention agents of emotional catharsis. Flood places her works somewhere between diary entries and worship objects.
