Peony in Macro #2
Materials:
Soft Pastel on Sanded Paper
Description:
I have used the rich, dusty medium of pastel to re-present petals of a peony — also known as the Pentecost Rose. Working in macro, the colours and shadows of the flower become obscured, causing the light between the petals to break through, as though from within the flower. For In/break, I chose to explore immanence in the transcendent light present and shining from within the material world.
