I’ve been looking into the concept for this series and it’s really interesting , based on a tradition of Chinese fine art ink painting of plum blossoms, which is hundreds of years old (since 11th/12th century). Yale university art gallery says ‘The plum, blooming in isolation at the end of winter when it is still often surrounded by snow, became a symbol of regeneration and of endurance under adversity.’ So it all makes more sense now and makes me appreciate the series even more, although i wonder if some of the images are associated with a particular artist or painting - does anyone know?
Very awesome theme!
