“Monica digs deep into the cultural history of each native species to build the most intricate profiles that go beyond the beauty of the flower. 'I’m really interested in the ways that you can use objects and material culture to see more of the world and trace things back to their roots,’ she says.”

—Sydney Gore, Architectural Digest

“Monica’s lyrical and reflective writing allows for the notes on symbolism, history, and diverse cultural perspectives, to emerge as thoughtful and wisely considered.” 

—Olivia Meehan, Toast Magazine
