entry description
The tradition of the floral bouquet in art goes back centuries. However, the “Life in Motion” project features brand new botanical forms, which a camera “sees” when plant subjects are placed in motion during long exposure. I welcome the dance of distortion and decay. The images are unique and unrepeatable, portraying natural subjects from our garden. The portfolio originated in 2008, current size: 45 pieces. Every piece is both a distinct departure from botanical reality, and a literal document of exactly what happened in a single slice of time, in one single digital image.about the photographer
Graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with Honors and a year's studies at Karl August Universitaet, Goettingen, I begin silver printing 35 years ago and studied with many master photographers. Though I've continuously enjoyed having a darkroom, currently it's photograms, solarizations, lumen prints, and lith printing that take me there, and digital for the rest of the work.My work continues to be honored with international awards and exhibitions.
