Description

The photographs in Eyes as Big as Plates 2 are a testament to the connection between humans and nature. Karoline Hjorth and Riitta Ikonen's ongoing art project, which began in 2011, features portraits of people over 50 surrounded by natural sculptures created from materials found in their surroundings. These sensitively shot images present individuals who have been woven into living, breathing works of art, showcasing the beauty of nature's diversity. The accompanying Field Notes section provides further insight into the photographs, including concise descriptions of those portrayed and behind-the-scenes information on the creative process. By presenting themselves and sharing their life stories, the subjects in these portraits invite us to reflect on our relationship with the natural world.
