About the Item

This print features the playful relationship between natural forms and botanicals. In this image Erin uses the natural composition of the ivory and greens of the Fritillaria, and her own collage work, to create a hypnotic mandala with the botanicals. Some describe it as a kaleidoscope effect. The warm white background serves as a bright contrast backdrop to the floral. This piece is part of an ongoing collage project working natural objects and botanicals. They are a series of large scale photographs where Erin, working digitally and with mindfulness for lighting and composition, builds wholly new imagery using botanicals and natural objects. The results are at once familiar and strikingly unfamiliar. Of the earth yet other worldly. The images are bold, sensual and effervescent with light and color. Amazingly, they are concrete and ethereal simultaneously. And always there is a strong sense of the atmospheric. The prints are of the highest gallery quality, printed on Hahnemühle or Canson Photo Rag Bright White 310 paper. They are striking up close with so much detail, and a bold statement viewed from a distance. The paper is delicate, so framing under glass is highly recommended. The print is un-framed, but various framing options are available. This is a limited edition of 50, signed print. It will arrive with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
