This image of a Crocus is one of six in a series entitled 'Mary Delany's Garden (Winter),' which won an award at the Royal Horticultural Society's Art and Photography Show in 2019.
Mary Delany (1700-1788) was an English artist famous for her “paper mosaics” which she began creating in her widowhood at the age of 71. In this series I depicted the sorts of plants that might grow in the winter garden of an English lady such as Mary Delany.
To create my photographs, I employ a method of 'camera-less' photography in the form of the flatbed scanner attached to my computer. The lighting effect of the scanner means that very little light enhancement post-production is required in my photographs. I have some control over their composition; which I employ in the way I place the plants on the scanner bed, and by digitally cutting and re-placing certain elements of the plant post-production. This way, I am able to create a botanically accurate, yet stylized final image of the plant.
This is a giclée print on Hahnemühle Photo Rag which is a beautiful matte paper that adds a velvety depth to the black background in the photograph.
This is a signed limited edition run of 4 prints, plus the artist proof. Please note that the artist proof and 1st edition have been sold.
$25 of each sale will be donated to conservation charities Plant Life and Butterfly Conservation UK.
