The story of this specific work, Sunflowers and Dragons, begins with the process of photographing a beautiful flower, to depict its pure essence, capturing its positive colour and the energy that the Sunflower is known for. In various cultures, the sunflower symbolizes aspects of good luck, happiness, nourishment, positivity, strength, loyalty, admiration, and long life. So it came to a surprise when I created this final artwork, which started as personal dive into what seemed to be an under-worldly journey, into a subconscious realm that was luring me deeper and deeper, and it felt like I had stepped over a threshold - sinking into a different reality. It was a dark but an intriguing place. The result is this artwork, and spending hours upon hours rotating, minimizing, repositioning, the original sunflower, over and over again, as if possessed, not knowing what the outcome would be, just moving with the uncertainty, and trusting the process - this for me has become the meaning of the new sunflower. The work is called Sunflowers and Dragons, alluding to both these stories, of positivity and happiness, as well as a curious fear, a personal surrender, and an alchemical transformation. The work allows one to lose oneself, hypnotized, mesmerized, taking a journey into new worlds.

South Africa
Gregor is a photographer and visual artist from South Africa. He creates provoking images that are thematically focussed and set to interrogate perceptions and self-reflection on culture, landscapes, identity, emotions and mythology. Through his visual work, Gregor captures the complex strength and fragility of the human condition. He carefully visualises and merges layers of realities with imaginations, while exploring what it means to be, think, feel, and dream in the urban world. Whilst his photographs are striking in composition and rich in story-telling, his visual art is in constant creative evolution where he uses exquisite photo-manipulation to create his imaginal works. Gregor has over the past decade evolved with his art, working inventively with various mediums, such as aluminium and silk, and other avant-garde photographic concepts. He has exhibited internationally with group exhibitions raining from Rotterdam to Milan, and has held various successful solo exhibitions in South Africa.
