The steam holes of a working iron were re machined to mirror the iconic
aura of the Virgin of Guadalupe. When cloth is scorched by the iron an
image of the Virgin appears in the burn. The text on the T-shirts
(everything is coming up roses) accompanies the burns and refers to the
Virgin of Guadelupe's first appearance when she caused roses to grown on
a barren hillside for the lone peasant Juan Diego.

Everything's Coming Up Roses
The steam holes of a working iron were re machined to mirror the iconic
aura of the Virgin of Guadalupe. When cloth is scorched by the iron an
image of the Virgin appears in the burn. The text on the T-shirts
(everything is coming up roses) accompanies the burns and refers to the
Virgin of Guadelupe's first appearance when she caused roses to grown on
