“Nobody sees a flower, really - it is so small it takes time - we haven’t time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.” - Georgia O’Keeffe
All of these images are photographed on 35mm film without any digital modification around the city of Los Angeles. I rewind the film after it’s shot and reshoot it over and over again, reloading the same roll on separate days throughout the year. Having no idea on what frame exists what, I am layering various elements that come together through a combination of intentional composition and chance.
“When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.” - Georgia O’Keeffe
