TALKING TO FLOWERS

Capturing the rich symbolism of flowers, tracing the changing meanings of roses, poppies, sunflowers, irises, tulips, carnations, and more.

I search for sensory experiences through vivid natural textures and personal landscapes, be it an imprint in creased bed sheets, cracked lines in broken skin or blooming blossoms catching the light.
