Hillary Waters Fayle: Portraits of Place — Mandala Cyanotypes from Pressed Botanicals

Hillary Waters Fayle arranges dried petals, seeds, and foliage from specific locations into intricate mandala-like compositions on acrylic, then transfers them to vivid blue cyanotypes using UV-sensitive iron salts and sunlight. Her ongoing series “Portraits of Place” preserves the botanical identity of landscapes facing development or rising sea levels — a quiet act of remembrance through pattern and pigment.
