Babcia’s Garden
27 designs. One garden.
My grandmother's garden was never empty. She knew exactly where to plant each flower so that as one faded, another was just beginning. The whole season, something was always in bloom.
Babcia's Garden is a collection of 27 kaleidoscopic designs made from photographs taken in that garden. Each image began as a photo, then was rotated and mirrored into a radially symmetrical design.
The book moves through the spectrum, organized by colour from the first hue to the last. Each spread shows the original photograph alongside its transformation.
