I subject them to various experiments such as soaking in salt water, drying, or even depigmentation. These processes, which can sometimes last more than a year, allow me to alter the plants' character, and capture the evolution of their appearance. I then return to nature what it has lent me by placing it back in the forest or the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eOver the past few years, I have developed a vast digital catalog of more than 5,000 flowers and algae, which serve as the basis for creating immersive artworks. My works are created from scans to which I add my own interventions. Thus, depending on the subject, I proceed in progressive layers, redrawing the light, and sometimes even entire sections of the works. By manipulating chiaroscuro, I allow the colors to be imbued with emotion and express themselves in a photorealistic composition alongside a Caravaggesque darkness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e- Rachel, creator and founder of Raoul \u0026amp; Simone\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mesmer","offers":[{"title":"Couronne Du Saint-Laurent","offer_id":41254147162170,"sku":"SQ5025403","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fantôme","offer_id":41254147194938,"sku":"SQ9674410","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"L'épilobe","offer_id":41254147227706,"sku":"SQ7137782","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Nocturne","offer_id":41254147260474,"sku":"SQ4142631","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/6659\/6922\/files\/89c9dc38cea45ea64ac1d74b67480c6b460dc4a52043d37139b6ac9074dd439e.webp?v=1771495297","url":"https:\/\/mesmermesmer.com\/products\/raoul-simone-notebooks-journals-5-variations","provider":"Mesmer Mesmer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
