An exhibition of photographs by Mary Norden & Polly Wreford
Gathered is simply about the beauty and joy of flowers and plants.
Whether the picture is of a single stem of blossom, a detail of trailing clematis, or a bunch of Icelandic Poppies, these glorious photographs demand contemplation and stir the emotions – sometimes in an unexpected way.
Some of the images are very simple, with no narrative, and the emphasis purely on colour and shape. In others, the flowers are arranged with props and backgrounds, or put in surprising spaces that exaggerate or contradict the spirit of the plant.
Polly Wreford, photographer, and Mary Norden, art director and stylist, share a passion for flowers, and for making beautiful images of them. To create this exhibition and accompanying book, they collaborated for over a year, photographing flowers that Mary had growing in her garden in East London.
Limited Edition Prints available (both framed & unframed).
