Bougainvillea Bract, 2017
Unique photogram, gelatin silver print
20" x 16" x 1"
In my ongoing series, "The Secret Life of Plants", I create photograms: photographs that are made without the use of a camera. This 19th century process has an immediacy, rawness, and truth that is not found in images created with a camera. Utilizing plant material akin to film negatives, I project it onto photosensitive paper via an enlarger. My work seeks to spark a sense of wonder, inspiration, and imagination within the viewer. And it is a subtle way to ask people to be aware of natural environments that surround them. My work serves as a visual testament to the interconnectedness of man and nature, urging a deeper observation of the intricate beauty existing in the world around us.
