Weaning off Lake Mead, 2023, Found fabric, acrylic, wood, vintage glass beads, 16 x 28 x 2 inches. There is a drop in hormone levels when weaning a child off of nursing. As milk levels drop, it can take months for the body to recalibrate. In my experience, the hormonal shift left me feeling hollow and I fell into a dissociative state that I still struggle with today. I felt like Lake Mead, drained and with the remnants of calcium and other minerals glaring white. $1,900

Forever Chrysalis, 2022, Found wood, vintage cast butterflies and moths, copper wire, rubber, bug attracting light bulb, adhesive, 16 x 16 x 10 inches. Caged in resin years before, these moths and butterflies are frozen in time, unable to return to the earth and become again. At the center of Forever Chrysalis stands two icons of these insect’s former lives: the form of a Fireweed flower, a super attractant for butterflies in the Pacific Northwest, and the glowing orb of a bug light, a friend of the nocturnal moth. $3,000

Was it a Mother Who Named the Milky Way as She Nursed Her Child Under the Night Sky?, 2022, Found fabric, Vintage cast Queen Anne’s Lace, 40 x 45 x 5 inches. Was it a Mother Who Named the Milky Way as She Nursed Her Child Under the Night Sky? first came to me as I fed my newborn in the dark of the night. The tightly stacked fabric mimics a string of milk droplets and the hazy galaxy above. The center of each droplet contains a vintage Queen Anne’s Lace paperweight. This flower shares eerily similar shapes with mammary glands. $4000

Bishop’s Score in the Goldilocks Zone, 2021, Found cast daffodil, fabric, acrylic on wood, 24 x 24 x 2 inches. Bishop's score, also known as cervix score, is a pre-labor scoring system to assist in predicting whether induction of labor will be required. The Goldilocks Zone refers to the habitable zone around a star where the temperature is just right - not too hot and not too cold - for liquid water to exist on a planet. Without this liquid water, life as we know it cannot be supported. As one of the first flowers to bloom after winter, Daffodils symbolize rebirth and new beginnings. $1800

The Landscape Within Me, 2020, Found fabric, yarn, vintage cast Zinnia, wood, 36 x 26 inches. In this piece, Bratton shows the golden waves of her hair and cracks open her portrait to reveal an abstracted internal space. Inspired by the visuals of an ultrasound and the title (a quote by director Agnes Varda), the work documents a part of a woman’s fertility journey. The found cast Zinnia symbolizes the desire to immortalize the preciousness or innocence of life. $2800

Weeping Willow, 2023, Found fabrics, vintage glass, and acrylic on wood, 46 x 16 x 2.4 inches. A constant throughout every season is the beauty of the willow tree outside my studio window. Their branches sway in the wind, their leaves gleam chartreuse in the earliest days of spring, and their roots provide stability for the mucky hill my home sits on. During a fall storm, the neighborhood briefly lost power and the city cut half of the tree’s branches off. The tree seemed off balance and I worried for them. And then the Willow Project (a massive oil drilling venture in Alaska) was approved to move forward despite its health and environmental impacts. It was impossible to ignore these parallels. Weeping Willow encapsulates this grief. $3,100

In the Garden of the Beholder, 2021, Found cast Queen Anne’s Lace, Dandelion seeds, found fabric, acrylic on wood, 22 x 36 x 4 inches. In the Garden of the Beholder is a meditation on the parallels between the milky substance of motherhood and the latex that comes from cutting plant stems. $2300

Twisted Breastbone, 2020, Acrylic on wood, found fabric, resin pyramid, 18 x 18 x 2.5 inches. A spiral, a saw blade with skin-like fabric pulled tightly around it portrays the spot within our chests where many of us hold our anxiety, our tension. $800

The Perianth’s Glow, 2020, Acrylic on wood, 30 x 30 inches. The perianth is the outside petals of a flower, that attract bees to its pollen for reproductive purposes. The shades of these petals are beautiful, much like the varying shades of our own human species. $1200

Womb of Christ, 2020, Found fabric, acrylic, wood, solder, 12 x 28 x 2 inches.

Charred wood gives physical presence to the wounds of forest fires. $2300
