Flora, Fauna, Humans, the work of Alix Hitchcock, pertains to the imagery in her gelatin plate monotype prints. Animals such as foxes, hawks, and doves, plant shapes, and child-like humans in silhouette are intermixed in swirling abstracted environments, creating a sense of timelessness and evocative moods.
