ARTIST STATEMENT- David Stichweh<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The photographs in the exhibition are weeds and faded flowers photographed on a light box.\u00a0 Why focus on weeds and faded flowers – plant forms we mostly ignore and discard?\u00a0 Because once we truly “see” them we discover the beauty of shape, line, pattern, movement.\u00a0 The photographs focus attention on these visual elements and gives voice\u00a0 to the unique forms and structures of\u00a0 these often overlooked subjects, and hint at the forces which shaped them.<\/p>\n
