Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In Searchings, photographer Barbara Bordnick enters the world O'Keeffe speaks of through the lens of her camera, and discovers scenes of infinite variety and beauty.

Once smitten, Bordnick confesses, "I became enveloped and absorbed by the indescribable color, the surprising twists, the curls, and the artful reaches of their bodies — their secret landscape." Indeed we see that close up, a flower, or even just a detail of one, has an almost mystical power to consume one's attention and imagination. As small and contained as they are, their unique combinations of textures, patterns, and colors reflect a vast, inviting universe — one filled with moments of intimate encounter, where something eternal feels glimpsed. Searchings is one photographer's personal journey to record these moments. With each of her images, Bordnick quietly underscores the unlimited nature and form of flowers, while celebrating their unique and exquisite beauty.
