These photographs of flowers, in arrangement or single, are produced in large format and with Polaroid 55 black and white instant film. A bouquet of Lily is crossed by simple forms of geometry such as square, circle, triangle, enlightened by a frank and gentle light that allows us to enjoy every detail and every difference of material, and in the same time the work of light realized by the photographer in a studio.
Through this theme of flowers we can enjoy the control of light of this artist. Still lifes of Roses, Peonies, Arum lilies and Lilies, illustrate this work.
Buds spread out as a thousand sequins on a Black and White background. Variable forms are mixed to create the illusion of a shape, to reveal another one, from bouquets of flowers to macros of strewn petals. Still, lifes of Roses, Peonies, Arum Lilies and Lilies, illustrate the work of the artist who is always in search of novelty to free himself of the norms and habits. He takes his brush and draws the elegant curves of pure and delicate flowers.
Flowering is a hymn to life, a call to happiness and joy; it transcribes the most pure human feelings and summarizes them into an artistic perfection. The images reflect the search for balance between light and darkness, between squares, circles and triangles. The detail is the raison d’ętre of photography, the angle of view is the most important thing. We let the observer make his own interpretation, the amateur mixes in it his own feelings and his own experiences.
Joel Vogt masters the art of the floral arrangement, but here, it is above all a matter of how to control the light and its colours. In his studio the artist sculpts the image, he perfects his technique, he devotes himself in what he does the best, namely to take pictures in "haute couture" to always surprise us.
You can now offer yourself these authentic large format pieces, a rare luxury reserved for connoisseurs who know how to appreciate the beauty of the work.
