" Lady from Borneo " is an unusual 50 x 50 cm square acrylic painting on linen canvas stretched over wood, depicting a fantastic portrait of a woman with nepenthe urn ears. Part of the Alchemists series.

Floral, feminine and delirious, this painting explores the poetic imagination of women and unusual flora, and pays homage to the wise women who used plants with medicinal properties to heal.

Nepenthes are passive carnivorous plants from tropical Asia. In his Odyssey, Homer refers to them as a plant whose extracted juice was said to have the ability to bring oblivion and dispel melancholy. In Asia, they are used as medicinal plants.
