QUARANTINE DIARIES. Lilian Garcia Roig

Lilian Garcia Roig is a multidisciplinary artist based in Tallahassee, FL.

As an on-site painter, place is integral to both my subject and process, so when the COVID-19 crisis made traveling difficult, it became clear that I had to shift from working in the field to in the studio. This gave me the opportunity/excuse to fully dive into a research-based project centered on discovering links between my work as a painter and the scientific work of my great uncle, the renown Cuban botanist Juan Tomás Roig.

A deep dive into on-line herbarium archives resulted in finding an immense trove of botanical specimens that were named after Roig and/or collected by him. I felt a deep need to pictorially collect the specimens he collected before adding my personal artistic stamp to them.

This work-in-progress “Recollecting Roig” series is a reclamation gesture made by a Cuban-born, American-raised landscape painter yearning to capture and connect to her truncated personal, cultural and artistic heritage. Tallahassee, FL, Summer 2020.
