Black Box Projects is pleased to present a unique opportunity to become a patron in support of artist Brendan Barry's upcoming publication "Flowers with Bea".
This series was born during the 2020 lockdown where idle hours outdoors with the artist's young family inspired Brendan Barry to capture the wildflowers he collected on his daily walks with his daughter and immortalise the arrangements in the form of long exposure camera obscura photographs. The resulting images are deeply saturated in colour and texture, holding memory of this quiet time in recent history, the innocence of early parenthood and a young family, whilst being linked to the historical science and wonder of photographic technology as well as a centuries-old tradition of still life in visual arts.
GOST Books is taking the story and images of Brendan Barry's "Wildflowers Picked on Walks with Bea" and publishing Barry's first monograph. This is where we need your help. We are offering an opportunity to support Brendan Barry and this book project, whilst also getting some added benefits of artist prints or studio experiences based on the levels of patron support for this project.
