Socotra is a Yemeni island (and archipelago of the same name) located in the Indian Ocean, known for its unique and endemic flora and fauna. It is home to over 700 species of plants and animals that are found nowhere else in the world, including the Dragon's Blood Tree and the Socotra Desert Rose (Bottle Tree). The island also has a rich cultural heritage, with a mix of Arab and African influences.
I visited Socotra in March, led by a desire to photograph this exceptionally unique and beautiful place, and to learn more about it through experience and connection.
My favorite campsite of the trip was alongside an oasis, nestled between red hills and surrounded by bottle trees. After dark, I headed out under the crescent moon to photograph these blooming trees under the stars.
This orientation and framing feels like a portrait to me, and the bokeh effect on the stars reminds me of glitter. I felt like I got to know these trees well after spending so much time with them one on one. So I consider this to be a portrait of a friend, under the magical twinkle of a starry sky.
About the Image
For the first time, I am offering artist editions.
I created these for collectors, photography enthusiasts, and those who would like the highest quality prints to display in their space.
Each print is signed, dated by year, and editioned on the back in graphite. Photos are printed on Hahnemuhle PhotoRag Satin– a paper I chose for its delicate texture and sense of depth it gives the images.
Photos are printed by Thomas Editions in Los Angeles, and come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
I hope these pieces will give you a sense wonder for years to come.
