Raquel Mullins weaves familial and natural histories into fiber and installation work, creating a tactile dialogue between past and present. Her pieces combine archival 35mm photographs from her great-grandparents' home and garden with hundreds of flower photos gathered over a lifetime of travels. These cherished images are intertwined with the first roll of black-and-white film Raquel ever shot, capturing a visit to her great-grandparents’ home. During that visit, the family tradition of sitting outdoors, holding 35mm slides up to the sun, and sharing stories from the miniature, transparent images sparked her exploration of memory and connection. Through her work, Raquel delves into the maternal and mystical threads that interlace time, heritage, body, spirit, and the cosmos.
