Olaf Otto Becker: Branches with Plums
This serene diptych by German photographer, Olaf Otto Becker, belongs to an ongoing series titled ‘Four Seasons (2016 – present)’, a project that references permanent changes in nature.
Having spent his career photographing the wildest places on the planet, documenting fragile ecosystems in every hemisphere, this diptych stands apart from Becker’s usual work. Best known for his dramatic landscapes of towering icebergs in Greenland or the wild Malaysian rainforest, this evocative still life of a plum tree presents a different side to Becker’s oeuvre. Now only available in one size, these large format prints are close to selling out.
