"Texas Pollinators" explores the symbolism of flowers through the artist’s perspective, shaped by Buddhism and meditation, emphasizing their beauty, fragility, and cyclical nature. Marengo Sanchez highlights Lantana and Salvia, native flowers to South Texas, magnifying their presence to honor their quiet strength and delicate beauty. The artist reflects on these florals, stating, “They are resilient and beautiful and deserve to be dramatically blown up in scale, hit with a spotlight, and a long shadow.”
