Eulogy represents absence in abundance, the idea that a full life, as represented by the projected videos of dense, living plant life, can also contain irreplaceable loss, as represented by the silhouettes of plants. The 10 styles of plant cut out represents either a loved one or a house plant in my life that has died. The piece also nods to the role of plants, especially flowers, in mourning as gifts to mourners and as decoration for funerary rituals
