Flower macro

Artist's statement for visitor's lounge:

The quintessence of the flower macro is peace. It is a subtractive process, about choosing to ignore the superfluous distractions of the world, and focus on nature's intricate beauty. It is a moment in time - the moment in which the flower is in its full glory. It is escapist and idealistic - the search for an island of beautiful tranquility in a sea of ugly chaos. In a world where truth is relative, and the truth that prevails at a particular time is a function of power, the flower macro carries absolute, refreshing, inalienable meaning.
