PRINTING ON FELT INSPIRED BY THE HIDDEN GARDENS OF LICHENS
PHOTOGRAPHY
THE 2 IMAGES ARE TAKEN AT HIGH RESOLUTION OF FUNGUS ON A GATE AND THEY APPEARED TO BE GROWING AND FLOWERING IN FRONT OF MY EYES .
It is a hidden world a hidden garden.
This inspired a hidden imagery blurred into the felt and then the sharp image applied on top.
