“I think perfection is ugly.
Somewhere in the things humans make,
I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.”

― Yohji Yamamoto



Artist and photographer Qi Wei took apart real flowers to create this stunning photo series titled “Exploded Flowers”. Each bloom is deconstructed into its individual bits and pieces, from the stamens to the pistils to each and every petal.
