The sentiment of our only constant being change is asserted in the writing of Octavia Butler who also proposes taking root amongst the stars. We Root with the Stars is an exploration of relationship with the temporal and with the stars. By processing the dried roses from the artist's sculpture Rootless into a pigment, Murray continues the life cycle of the roses that wilted in a deceitful environment. Looking towards the star blanket as a multifaceted marker of home, the artist offers a place for the roses to bloom again.
