EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Hemel Water Gardens 35041_006" transports us to the enchanting landscape of Hertfordshire in 2021. A true masterpiece of design, this early instance of allegory and sub-conscious incorporation within landscape architecture is a testament to human creativity. Inspired by the renowned painter Paul Klee, who skillfully merged art with aerial photography, designer Geoffrey Jellicoe embarked on a remarkable endeavor. Within this urban oasis lies an intriguing secret: a hidden ghost in the form of a snake. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are drawn to every detail as we search for its elusive presence. The fusion of art and science becomes evident as one contemplates the intricate layers that make up Hemel Water Gardens. The aerial perspective offers us a unique vantage point from which we can appreciate the deliberate placement of elements within this water garden. Each component harmoniously interacts with its surroundings, creating an immersive experience for visitors. Damian Grady's photographic expertise brings out the ethereal beauty captured within these gardens. Through his lens, he invites us to explore not only the physical aspects but also delve into deeper meanings concealed beneath their surface. As we admire this awe-inspiring creation, let us reflect on how landscapes can transcend mere functionality and become works of art themselves—places where imagination intertwines with reality and nature dances hand-in-hand with human ingenuity.
