Sea Change Exhibition in Botanic Gardens Edinburgh

Sea Change Exhibition

There was a small exhibition on inside the Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh. 
Why not have a look?



I was impressed with the presentation, the photographs didn't warp, they were completely vertical along side the wall and was presented neatly. 


The shadow slightly creates a 3Dimensional object form


The wear and tear around the edges match the subject and technique used to shoot this photograph. 


2 of my favourites 




It's like the creator of this cut out a section in the ground or a large rock and displayed it to us so that we could see every layer. 




These two pieces were hard to photograph because they had a sheet of glass in front.

These two pieces remind me of the Edward Burtynsky exhibition "Water".
Although it may not be as expertly shot, they are both rather similar, a birds eye view on a section of landscape. 




Looking at how people interacted with the artwork and the space. 
There was a lot of glare from the sunlight so it required close viewing. 





I was looking closely at texture (ill get into it more on another blog) during this trip, and i saw this.


The process of placing different types of plants in between pages of a book and closing it shut has only recently interested me. Not because of the plant itself but the texture within when dried up.
