Botanical Gestures

Botanical Gestures is a collection of photographs in which plants are not presented primarily as botanical subjects, but as visual gestures — lines, curves, rhythms, movements and signs.

After bringing the plants home, I often keep them for several months, slowly returning to them and choosing only those that continue to reveal something visually strong.
