Urban Gardens
My new photo series explores the central construct that we live in a time of diametrically opposed realities. The juxtaposition of organic elements against an industrial backdrop reflects an inherent dissonance. The organic is ethereal, transient and the inorganic, hard, static and unyielding. There is a harshness to contemporary times as we try to seek out beauty in any form, to create a sustainable life. Flowers represent lightness of being and the feminine generative powers to transform as nature evolves…letting go of the old to make way for new growth. Fading flowers mirror time’s passage and transition to other spaces. Metal screening evokes structure and conformity.
