This striking black and white photograph showcases the delicate beauty of a flower in bloom. The image is dominated by the dramatic contrast between the intricate petals and the dark background, drawing the viewer's attention to the intricate details of the flower's form.

Artist
Elle Pérez
B.1989, American

Elle Pérez is a photographer who creates deeply meditative and intimate portraits of their peers and equally beguiling tableaux of landscapes. Drawing on the traditions of American Landscape painting and photography and the specific practices of photographers such as Ansel Adams, William Eggleston, Peter Hujar and Nan Goldin, Pérez has an innate ability to capture the poetic sensibility of people and places. Playing with focus, crop and colour grading, the images tenderly navigate the intricacies of queer relationships, the dynamics of chosen families and the resonance of natural environments. Shooting both in New York City and in woodlands, lakes and boglands, the contents of their images shift dramatically, from domestic portraits of lovers to knotted tree roots or disused door frames. What remains a constant, however, is an absolute adoration of material surfaces. Commenting on this fascination, Pérez states, “surfaces have the ability to contain the traces of an experience”, and this search for raw emotional authenticity permeates Pérez’s oeuvre as they capture and uncover traces of intimacy. ...
