VISIONAIRE 40: Roses by David Sims (1202/3000)

About the Item

Limited edition, numbered 1202 of 3000 copies. From the Visionaire website: In 40 ROSES, David Sims shares a deeply personal body of work in which he returned to the primary school he attended as a child to photograph the wilting roses on its grounds. As Sims explained at the time, “The fragile and temporal qualities of flowers are well used as a visual metaphor for youth. But when I look at these roses close up and trace their own knocks and dents, I find a greater beauty and a complexity in their imperfections. The roses represent for me a very definite point in life and a state of mind.” The resulting images were bound in a book and arrived with a signed print from the photographer.

"The alternative small run publication has often dazzled, always relentlessly focused on changing the way we look at the printed page. Looking haughtily over its shoulder to Fleur's Flair, Visionaire rolls up its sleeves, cups its hands to its mouth, flexes it muscles... Oh, I could go on all day... And whispers, "The eyes have it." — David Bowie
