Artist Statement: The Exposed Series: Flowers on Black, and Digital Daisies
Taking flowers we suppose we know well, and separating them contextually, causes the viewer to see colors more richly, and examine each detail in its intricacy. Torn from their stems, undersides exposed, floating in solid black space, I reveal the vulnerability of each bloom. Like people, the environment in which a flower exists, and the occasion to which we tie it, speaks volumes. When we don’t know where we stand as individuals, we feel susceptible, uncertain and exposed. How somone responds in such situations reveals their character.
While the delicacy of a flower goes unquestioned, I also reveal its strength and core. When picked apart, separated, denuded, examined from the under side; deconstructed per se, the exposed petals and other particulars never falter in their integrity and beauty.
We present here one or two sizes and paper styles of each image for sale, but the art is avaialble in just about any size. Just contact us if you would like to purchase a size one not listed.
Many sizes available, up to 40" on the short side. Can partition an image for even larger sizes, by printing 2, 3 or 4 sections to be hung right up against each other. Contact for more information.
All images can be printed on Photographic Paper, for a vivid clean look, or on Canvas, giving the image a painterly quality. Watercolor paper creates another beautiful effect completely different.
