Leaves
In these spectacular 4 – 5 ft. tall photographic prints, the artist
isolates a tree leaf on a white background. The minimal presentation
emphasizes the natural form of the organic object in a dramatic relief.
The massive scale in which viewers are confronted with the most mundane
of nature’s objects is breathtaking – without being glued to a
microscope we enter a world of pulsating life and subtle, inevitable
decay. While his portraiture has managed an intimacy with its subjects
that reveals much to the viewer about the subject, the photos in LEAVES
underscore both the highs of beauty and lows of mortality in an
interwoven, epic manner which reveals much to the viewer about his or
her self. 16x20 9x10 available
