Jacques Brun, Tappan Collective Hibiscus from the series LAST DANCE, 2018

“I’m looking for a forgotten nature, a lost paradise.” – In this series Brun explores the slow decay of one of the most beautiful and symbolic natural elements; florals and fauna. Photographing their last moment of being “alive”, the forms begin to appear as abstract sculptures, now to eternally live on as a photograph.
