The first image is of a photograph by Karl Blossfeldt, a German sculptor and artist who worked in Berlin. His main subjects were plants and living things, he was fascinated by nature and the way in which plants grow. He meticulously arranged the plants against stark backgrounds and photographed in magnification, so that unfamiliar shapes from the vegetal world were revealed as elegant architectural forms.
The second image is a photograph that i have done myself to imitate Blosssfeldts unique style. I also used a stark, black background to emphasise the entwining together
