"Simplicity in square: Rural mood with pink hue: Together until we are blown out" is a picture of two simple fluff balls of common Dandelions.
From these light lint balls, the fluffy bulbs have opened completely. Now it's waiting for a whiff of wind, to spread that way, all the seeds attached to the fluff.
For me, this work exudes something of simplicity and tranquillity but, at the same time, something of fragility and impermanence. The final stage of these flowers has arrived. Just a whiff of wind and it is done with these balls of fluff.
A soft pastel-coloured eye-catcher that exudes a serene and natural atmosphere while also trying to tell a story about impermanence and love.
When shooting this picture, I chose a depth of field that ensures the background is virtually even and the front fluff of both dandelions are in focus. This gives a sense of depth to the work, but it also adds even more calmness to the photo. If you zoom in, you can see this very well. This work is also available in portrait format (work code: 1717669)
This work could hang beautifully in a bedroom, waiting room or just above the couch in the living room!
