Sunday Evening Art Gallery — Helen Ahpornsiri

~ humoringthegoddess

British artist Helen Ahpornsiri grows and collects flora, foliage, and seaweeds which she preserves with traditional flower pressing methods before delicately re-imagining them into artworks.

Her delicate compositions depict the diversity of the natural world, from mammals and birds to insects and sea creatures.

All of Ahpornsiri’s uniquely beautiful images are made using only real flowers, petals, leaves and stems.

The majority of the plants she uses are grown in her small garden, cut for pressing, leaving the rest of the plant to continue growing and providing for the local wildlife. These are all grown or foraged responsibly before being placed in a flower press.

After one to six weeks, the flora and foliage are flat and ready to use, their natural colors preserved, with no dyes or paints.Each piece is then cut and delicately positioned to form detailed designs, brimming with the intricate twists and tangles of plant life.
