The Evolution of Nature series marks the debut of Swartz's bold artistic evolution through her incorporation of organic material, paying tribute to the natural elements that healed her from two environmentally borne illnesses. The series acknowledges the dichotomy in nature's ability to both destroy and heal with reverence. Dried fruits, flora, and herbs protrude alongside other nutrient-rich elements in complex, sculptural compositions. Evolution of Nature debuted at Galerie Noack in Berlin in September of 2021 at the opening of Swartz's solo exhibition Three Dimensions.
