Honorable Mention
metamorphosis #3
DESCRIPTION
In this project, photographs of flowers are modified by a series of post-production processes in order to weaken the link between the real subject and its photographic representation. The intent is to reduce these flowers to their purest form and to create something new, surreal, starting from an ordinary subject, which could never be seen this way in real life. AUTHOR
