83 Oranges draws directly from the historical plates of Flore pittoresque et me´dicale des Antilles, reimagining 19th-century botanical studies as a vibrant, patterned landscape. The composition utilizes the specific anatomy of Caribbean leaves and blossoms, arranging them into a sequence that feels both orderly and wild, grounded by a rich spectrum of deep greens.

Instead of a clinical observation, the artist uses diffused light to soften the edges of each petal, creating a sense of intimacy within the greenery. The repetition of forms creates a visual hum, echoing the natural rhythms found in dense garden growth where every leaf and stem plays a part in a larger, harmonious design.
