"Flowers and Photography" invites viewers to consider why flowers continue to be a favourite subject of women artists. Enlisting the garden subject as one that is reflective of contemporary theories about art, nature and the ordering of knowledge, the show features the blooming pictures, including Barbara Astman and Lori Newdick. This group exhibition displays the appeal of the contemporary floral subject, while also exploring the inherited notions of the symbolic function of flower imagery.
