Flowers, deconstructed

Posted on July 28, 2012 by funflowerfacts

From L-R: sunflower, gerbera daisy, rose, hydrangea, lily

Singaporean artist and photographer Fong Qi Wei shows us that the sum of its parts is greater than the whole though a series of photographs, entitled “Exploded Flowers.” These striking images illustrate the beauty and complexity of one of nature’s most beautiful creations through symmetry and pattern. Qi Wei was inspired partially by photographer Todd Mclellan’s Disassembly.

The series of 20 photographs included flowers such as the rose, lily, daisy, hydrangea, and the lotus.

About funflowerfacts

I love flowers! I enjoy growing them, learning about them and I love creating bouquets of freshly cut flowers. In our climate where it's winter most of the time, the growing season is way too short, so I have started this blog to get my fix all winter! I encourage you to post regularly on this blog, especially if you're lucky enough to live in a warm climate and can grow flowers all year long. I intend to post a lot of interesting facts and fun stuff about flowers, as well as info on many varieties of flowers.
