Dove Allouche — SunFlower 17
Dove Allouche

SunFlower 17

2015

A hauntingly delicate image rendered in tin and silver on cibachrome paper, *SunFlower 17* by Dove Allouche transforms the familiar botanical form into something ethereal and otherworldly. The metallic materials lend the work a luminous, almost scientific quality, evoking the language of early photographic and radiographic processes. Housed in an artist's frame, the piece bridges the boundary between nature and technology, inviting a meditative contemplation of organic structures through an alchemical lens.
