Melting Stills

Skilled artist and photographer Nick Knight has recently launched a body of work in London, which took him nearly 10 years to develop. Taking large scale floral photography, inspired by 16th century still life paintings, Nick exposes the prints to heat and water during the printing process which results in the most unique and breathtaking hybrid of photography and painting.

  7. Love the dripping art from a few posts below even more – but this is cool, too. Worlds (or motifs within) that are changing kind of always remind me of Stephen King and make me want to read more of his works (even though I just finished “Duma Key.”) Reality and its perception is definitely a highly interesting topic!
