About Sunflower
Sunflower creates from pain and turns it into beautiful collective memory.
Disabled and autistic artist Sunflower creates from expressions of pain and suffering, transforming them into beautiful collective memories. Their work is rooted in emotional synesthesia, meaning they feel in color and that is what they paint with.
Each painting is a memory that can be shared and connected to by the collective unconscious, because of the deeply human connection we all have to our feelings. Each piece becomes a spiritual translation of the frequency of emotion into light and color.
Sunflower’s art is a bridge from the unseen world of invisible disability into a seen world bursting with emotional color and texture. Looking at their art can remind us that even pain can be transmuted into love and passion.
Emotional synesthesia
Sunflower feels emotion as color, turning pain, memory, joy, grief, and tenderness into painted light.
Invisible made visible
Their art gives form to invisible disability, creating a colorful visual language for what is often unseen.
Comfort from bed
Sunflower also creates fiber art, disabled plushies, and comforting clothing from bed.
Disability as artistic language

Astigmatism
Astigmatism influences the glowing sun rays, halos, light bursts, and radiant sparkle that appear throughout their work.
Connective tissue disability
A genetic connective tissue disability causes hand and muscle instability, becoming part of Sunflower’s impressionist painting style.
Transmutation
Their disability is as beautiful and awe-inspiring as the pieces of art it helps create.

Artist statement
“Even pain can be transmuted into love and passion.”
Sunflower’s work reminds us that suffering does not have to remain hidden. It can become light. It can become color. It can become connection.
Fiber art from bed
Soft art, disabled plushies, and comforting clothing.
Sunflower also creates fiber art from their bed: disabled plushies and comforting clothing made by disabled people for disabled people and for anyone who needs softness, care, and color.
These pieces are part of the same artistic world as the paintings. They are tender, practical, emotional, and rooted in disabled creativity.
