Flowers Frozen In Ice Cubes Look Like Watercolors

Published 10 years ago

Photographer Kenji Shibata works with the incredibly poetic media of ice cubes and vivid flowers that he freezes into them. The photographer’s visually arresting work captures the everlasting beauty of flowers stuck in time.

In his latest photo series “Locked in the Ether,” Shibata actually plays with flowers’ life and time – not only does he capture the already frozen flowers, but also their first post-thaw breaths and their eventual death.

You can visit Osaka’s exhibition at Tachibana Gallery in Osaka until 20th December.
