Flowers: Selections From The Eye Closet I An Interview with Sarah Skeen
Click to read Janelle talk to Sarah for The Journal.
Flowers offer so many things for one to appreciate when around them—color, changing form and shape, sometimes a fragrance. Choosing black and white lets the viewer take in just one of those amazing attributes and makes it more impactful. I also think we can become immune to certain flowers, like daffodils. We see them in the grocery store—there they are in yellow bunches—we can walk right by them because we’ve seen them hundreds of times. But if you view them in black and white, and study them strictly on the basis of shape and form, I think it reminds people how truly beautiful and unique a daffodil really is. -Sarah Skeen
