”The lilies used in Maija Hecht’s works were gathered from her grandmother’s backyard in Deer River, Minnesota. She then crushed these wildflowers into an emulsion for anthotype printing—a method of photo-making that utilizes plant-derived dyes, causing images to fade when exposed to light. The precarity of this process is reflected in the landscapes of Hecht’s Someday This Too May Be Gone series, which contain both intimate childhood memories and the legacies of extraction that scar northern Minnesota. Her grandmother—who introduced her to many of these places—appears again in a sequence of semi-translucent curtains that Hecht has drawn onto. This tender layering imagines her grandmother through the window of her crowded kitchen, suggesting the inheritance of family memories rooted to a changing land.”
