Artist Statement:
NATURE MORTE
This series is a tribute to
overlooked beauty. I have
always been interested in the
aesthetic of decaying floral
life. These photographs reveal
the intrinsic visual appeal of
withered plants and flowers.
Intentionally, I have used
very simple compositions where
the subject is reduced to its
basic geometrical elements.
Once the photographs have been
taken, the negatives are
manipulated according to
processes that incorporate an
element of chance.
Overlaying a texture, created
by the different
manipulations, on flowers and
plants also allows the
interesting juxtaposition of
the chemical and organic
realms.
