Portraits in Bloom: 2023 - Ongoing

Rooted in the memories of her grandmother’s garden, Tavormina elevates the flowers she cultivates in her Connecticut garden into refined, timeless photographic portraits. Inspired by 17th-century Master still lifes, each composition captures blooms in every stage of life—from tightly furled buds to softly fading petals—while butterflies and insects underscore the delicate interconnectedness of the natural world. The series meditates on the ephemeral beauty of nature and the enduring ties of memory, family, and personal history.
