About the Item
Printed in rich platinum/palladium, these intricate and formal portraits depict the delicate but dangerous nature of carnivorous plants.
"The poetic sensibility of nature seems to hover somewhere between paradise and tragedy. In these flesh-eating plants, we find a sinister beauty. Evolution has taught these carnivorous plants how to make the best of the conditions they grow in, honoring the darker more mysterious side of nature."
– Beth Moon
All photographs are platinum/palladium prints. These metals are hand coated on 100% rag cotton water color paper with natural deckled edges and contact printed. Since platinum, like gold, is so stable and permanent, the platinum print is the most archival of any image on paper.

Beth Moon
Time, memory and nature are the central motifs that underlie the photographic imagery of Beth Moon. Whether she is recording the majestic, sentinel-like trees for the Portraits of Time series; capturing the lives of ravens at the seaside for the Odin’s Cove series; or rendering menacing carnivorous plants in the Savage Garden portfolio, Moon reveals a magical and intuitive appreciation for the earth, while defining our understanding of man's place in the universe. Moon has gained international recognition for her large-scale, richly-toned platinum prints. Since 1999, her work has appeared in more than eighty solo and group exhibitions worldwide, receiving critical acclaim in major fine art publications internationally. Her prints are held in numerous public and private collections, including the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego, the Louisiana Art & Science Museum, The Citadelle Art Museum, and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Bolzano, Italy.
