| Diver by Bee Flowers |
The National Centre for Contemporary Arts in Moscow is just finishing up an exhibition entitled Seeing Sound, a group show featuring a photo installation from Bee Flowers. Called
Diver, Flower's describes his piece as a musical score in visual images, the accompanying music, presented on head phones, providing a possible reading of the collection of images.
Flower's work on the Photographer's Showcase,
Megastructure, investigates the urban spaces of Russia, largely composed of exceedingly similar concrete structures and arranged in such a way that well achieved city planning appears to be a happy accident. Taken during the winter, the images are striking in their colorlessness -- almost entirely in shades of pale, though captured on color film.
