Secret Landscapes of Flowers volume II Barbara Bordnick The first volume of Barbara Bordnick’s photographs of flowers, Searchings: Secret Landscapes of Flowers, was published in 2003 to widespread critical acclaim and resulted in exhibitions at Caelum Gallery (New York City), East End Books (Easthampton, NY), the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens (New York City), the Cleveland Botanical Gardens, the Modernbook Gallery (Palo Alto, CA), and the Pacific Center for Photographic Arts (Emeryville, CA). In this sequel— Searchings: Secret Landscapes of Flowers, volume II—Bordnick continues her uniquely intimate examination of a world of infinite variety and beauty. Each photograph is a revelation of form, color, and, not surprisingly, mood. What started for Bordnick as an exploration of the landscapes of flowers has evolved into a journey through the peaks and valleys not only of their forms, but of her own emotions. The resulting images are enthralling portraits that are both powerful and delicate, tumultuous and serene.
