After a hiatus of almost a year, my photoessay project Local Lives returned this Sunday to the Guardian with a profile of a the Ramrick Sadhoo Chowtal Group.

The other three installments will be posted over the next week.

La Fleur Morte

Click on each photo to see an enlarged detail.
These images are excerpts from a larger work that is in progress in which I examine the way that flowers, the reproductive organs of plants, deteriorate after they are picked and discarded.
The first two images were selected for display in the Art Society's November exhibition for 2007 and you can view an interview with Magella Moreau and Dennis McComie on the Gayelle Morning Show, Cock a Doodle Doo here and download the interview here. If you're curious about the slideshow I put together for my appearance, you can find that download here and view it here.
