Alcoplants

THE WHITE SERIES

The ALCOPLANTS series is the latest project within the TWO VIEWS project of contemporary stereo photography.

It features various plants and blossoms floating in jars of alcohol. Most of the plants were collected prior to World War I and are part of the Botanische Staatssammlung in Munich. They have been sitting in these jars for over a hundred years.

Each image is a glimpse into a time capsule: into the past when nature yet had to be explored and stereo photography was highly successful within the genre.
