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.
