'The flower that smiles to-day
To-morrow dies;
All that we wish to stay
Tempts and then flies.
What is this world’s delight?
Lightning that mocks the night,
Brief even as bright. ' - Percy Shelley, 1821-22.
A photo-collage inspired by the Percy Shelley poem about the brief and fleeting timeline of everything - how all the things we hold dear to us are short-lived and destined to die. The life cycle of flowers is transient but beautiful, they're a reminder to enjoy what we have, when we have it.
A fine art photographic still life featuring images taken over many years, past and present. A vibrant floral tapestry including Sunflowers, Daisies and Grevillea to Cherry Blossoms, Wisteria and Banksia.
