Kendra Frorup: Healing Properties

Hillsborough College: Dale Mabry Campus, Tampa, FL

Inspired by her family’s bush farm—land first cultivated by her mother through a government lease-to-own program—Frorup documents the plants and traditions of bush medicine, a practice rooted in resilience and care. Bordering the Bonefish Pond National Park, the farm becomes a site of remembrance and renewal, reflecting her family’s history with cancer and her own journey of recovery. Transforming collected and natural materials, Frorup turns the act of making into an act of healing.

Collecting is part of the making.
