Paper Flowers
Copenhagen Photo Festival 2019
In “PAPER FLOWERS”, Per Morten Abrahamsen presents a series of works that break with the two-dimensional plane of photography and reach out towards the viewer. By cutting out elements and simultaneously adding layers and contours, the ever-experimenting photographer attempts to rediscover the classical still life in a new context: Flowers, treated in a seemingly perfunctory way, are lifted out of the frame by Abrahamsen’s intervention, and transformed into wild and dynamic explosions of color in the pictorial space.
