New digital technology reveals the beauty of nature in Bob Creamer’s latest work. Bringing to life rarely seen flora, fauna, and fossil specimens, Creamer’s imagery is drawn from the research collections at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Florida, and the Echo Hill Outdoor School in Maryland. The artist’s creative process is as fascinating as the images themselves. Instead of photographing the objects with a camera, Creamer captures or imports them using a scanner. The result is unusually lifelike and provides striking interpretations of botanical, fossil, and bird collections.
"Transitions: Photographs by Robert Creamer” is organized by the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History and is circulated by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES).
