Grace at Dusk

Carmen Mandel-Cesáreo

Grace at Dusk

“I find ornamental grass of immense beauty. These simple, sturdy plants bear the grace, flexibility and softness hard to find in more elaborate sorts. Growing wild in the pampas, they are a common view in the vast wilderness of the Argentinean plains and meseta.

I grew up surrounded by them and still today they make me stop to contemplate their beauty. The thin and tall stems, crowned by filigree plumes, are a pretty artwork of Nature. This crown became iridescent in a blue glow at dusk.”



Artist statement
My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens. I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key.

This is an original uncropped image.
