Monssen creates sensual flower portraits that are both expressive and mysterious

Full Description

German photographer Hildegard Theodora Monssen (b.1948) creates sensual flower portraits that are both expressive and mysterious. She captures her motifs with natural light in extreme close-ups and reveals the personality of wilting flowers in all their vulnerability. Her images make visible the beauty of transience and temporality.

“Her balanced works of art function as a reflective memento mori.” —Rick Vercauteren, Director of the Museum van Bommel-Van Dam, Venlo, NL from 2005 – 2019.
