Piece description from the artist
This prismatic photograph, titled "The Creation of Azalea," captures a cluster of azaleas in a vibrant, symbolic moment, their delicate petals reaching toward each other in a gesture reminiscent of Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam. The prismatic effect bathes the flowers in a radiant spectrum of blues, purples, yellows, and pinks, creating a shimmering, almost divine glow that enhances the sense of connection between the blooms. The background, a swirling blend of warm and cool tones, adds a dynamic energy, as if the azaleas are sparking to life in a colorful, ethereal garden. The interplay of light and color evokes a sense of creation and unity, mirroring the iconic touch of life in the famous fresco.
Brandon Woods (b. 1987, Knoxville, TN, USA) is an interdisciplinary artist who creates his work at the intersection of art, craft, science, and math.
