"Mitchell attempts in her paintings to possess a bit of nature and call it her own. Yet her titles My Plant, My Other Plant, and My Landscape...may represent an ironic, universal statement about possession--a realization of the impossibility of owning nature or anything else" (J. Bernstock, Joan Mitchell, New York, 1988, p. 69).
