The Butchers Daughter

NEW YORK CITY 2024

Framed artwork featuring a half-skull, half-woman portrait with seashells at the bottom, and handwritten notes on the side and bottom.

A restaurant installation in New York City began with an introduction in Ojai, California in January of 2024, a deep and quick connection with the client and one month of creating five works placed in early March.

This work can be viewed inside Heather Tierney’s latest Butcher’s Daughter in The Bowery of Manhattan.
