Blossoms and Myths | Photo exhibition by Sabine Jörg

Photography or old master paintings? The works of Sabine Jörg invite you to puzzle and marvel. Who has ever seen flowers like this?

Modern photography or rediscovered old master paintings? The works of Sabine Jörg invite you to puzzle and marvel. Who has ever seen flowers like this? Diverse flowers present themselves in ephemeral splendor.

In their brief existence they are accompanied by various man-made things. And a dialogue develops between naturally given living flora and artistically made objects. Peonies overgrow an old porcelain doll, allusion to Snow White and Rose Red. The fierce Fo dog decorates itself with radiant dahlias and thus gains an acceptable appearance. Black-and-white photos are overwritten with colorful blossom joy. Each exhibit is in an individual antique frame, which emphasizes the uniqueness of the composition.
