Shattered Red Tulips

From the Desire For Arcadia series
Archival pigment print on cotton rag
40 x 32 in. / 102 x 82 cm
Edition of one and Artist Proof

"This body of work offers a view of an inhabited place inspired by the forest, the meadow and the garden; a place not unfamiliar but just beyond the reach of a city-dweller’s fingertips. Destined for the compost pile, all the plants depicted here have been cut, plucked and severed. This is an image of temporal life, caught by the camera, yet on a trajectory of decline. The photograph captures moments on this timeline, and gives us a landing place in a constantly moving and changing world.

"This series of photographs can be seen as a memento mori, reminding us of our ultimate destiny. Contemplate if you will, the fragile, time-limited nature of life, found in the detritus of my garden."
- B. Brown
