Deconstructed Portrait of a Dahlia III – Black and White

by Marlika Art

(3/10) The series ‘Portrait of a Dahlia Deconstructed’ plays with the different ways a single flower can be depicted by rearranging parts of the whole flower in a different way to how they would appear in the original image. This creates an interesting new overall image that invites the viewer to take a closer look. You can also see at a glance just how differently a single motif can be depicted in a picture. Here, there are ‘4 in 1’ partial images.
The black-and-white design really brings out the beautiful details of the lush bloom. The structure of the bloom can be seen in detail and as a whole: a delicate structure and arrangement of many petals that come together to form the flower as a ‘complete picture’.
The image has a minimalist style and looks elegant. It doesn’t dominate the foreground, yet it’s still a real eye-catcher.
Clean and classic, it suits many interior styles, whether in the bedroom, dining room or even the study/office. It showcases the natural ‘architecture’ of a dahlia.
