“When you hold a pressed flower against the light and see the perfectly formed detail you realise how wonderful nature is”, since writing those words many years ago they have remained the driving force for my work, I try to show the normally unseen skeletal structure of the plants own design only revealed after pressing them under a heavy pile of books has made them translucent and photographed with light from behind. My background in textile design allows me to appreciate the intricate designs found naturally in wild flowers.
