About the Item

Beaut is a 24" x 24" Lightjet Print from a Limited Edition of 15 in this size 'Beaut' captures the sinuous shapes and form of the iconic Nerines flower abstracted from its stems and all that makes it recognisable in the estate gardens of Exbury. This hybrid varietal, named Beaut, is a salmon-pink with tones of coral and soft pink. Creagh photographed the individual stems of the Beaut hybrid, then abstracted them against a midnight-black backdrop, rendering this elegant flower all the more dramatic and eye-catching. Combining a highly technical practice-based and digital methodology, Lisa Creagh reveals the beauty of this flower and emphasises its characteristic petals through the light-hand of digital manipulation. In this project, commissioned by Lionel de Rothschild, Lisa Creagh plays the role of botanical documenter, capturing the fascinating and diverse forms of the Exbury Nerines. The Nerines collection is iconic to Exbury, an estate garden open to the public in the South-West of England. Started by Lionel de Rothschild's grandfather between the First and Second World Wars, they are hybrids of the Nerine Sarniensis, also called the Guernsey Lily or Raquel. Creagh established a small studio on the Exbury estate, and performed a daily survey in the greenhouses to identify which flowers had bloomed overnight. The result is as a magnificent array of color and texture as one could imagine. In Creagh's own words: "Every day was a dose of color therapy as I walked between rows of abundant blooms." Available as 12" x 12" Lightjet Print from a Limited Edition of 15

Frazel Dazel III, Color Photography, Flowers, Floral, Botanical, Pink
By Rebecca Swanson
Located in Riverdale, NY
Rebecca Swanson, Frazel Dazel III, Limited Edition Photograph, 15x15, plexifacemount frame. This stunning image is filled fushia and a vibrant yellow/orange color. This is an edition of 15. Also available in 30x30. Rebecca Swanson’s work is inspired from her childhood in Ohio, growing up with her mother, an avid gardener, and her grandmother, an accomplished china painter. Her work is cultivated by the natural world, with its universal fragility and beauty we share with all plants and flowers. She “paints” with her camera, blending the abstract forms of nature with subtle colors to build intimate portraits of perfect, individual blooms. Her utopia is New York City with its parks, waterfronts, and botanical gardens. Rebecca studied drawing, painting, photography, and sculpture at the Cleveland Institute of Art and moved to New York to work as a textile designer. Rebecca has been exhibiting since 1995 in renown locations including the New York City Leica Gallery. Her photographs can be found in corporate collections including Banana Republic, St. Regis, Marriott and Omni hotels and in hospitals throughout the country. She has photographed gardens...
