Exploded Flowers

Hydrangea


These series of photographs were created with the hands of artist and photographer Qi Wei. He deconstructed different flowers and laid down every part of them from every single petal to the stamens and pistils showing radial symmetry and relative surface area.

Qi Wei says: “Of course, the incredibly ordered world of flowers lend itself to this technique wonderfully. My layout is slightly different in that I try to show (as far as possible) the relative positions of the petals, stamens and pistils with each other so that the radial symmetry is preserved and the flower is recognizable, but only just so.”
