Lesley Bretherton, Ephemeral Poppies (ART & CONCEPTUAL 2026)

I use multiple exposure to explore the delicate balance between beauty and impermanence. Flora—symbols of both vitality and inevitable decay — inform my work. Layering exposures allows subtle transitions between life and loss to emerge, inviting the viewer to contemplate nature’s ephemeral rhythms.
