i’m jealous of amira fritz

07.18.2011

Flowers. Oh, so many flowers…

Flowers in place of faces.

Flowers all alone in a quiet forest.

German photographer Amira Fritz grew up with parents who ran a plant nursery & flower shop {clearly}, and so large floral arrangements have become her choice of subject matter, as a reminder of home. I love both of these series so much {Alle von Denen & Spaziergang im Käferwald }, and could not decide which images to show. They’re all so lovely, eerie, and sort of sad in a strange way – a perfect combination as far as I’m concerned.

    Happy + a little melancholy = I like it, in a dreamy sort of way …

    Beautiful, thought provoking work – a sophisticated combination of the natural and manmade.
