Pierre Joseph reproduces in photography the beautiful plates of flowers that Pierre Joseph Redouté drew and engraved at the beginning of the 19th Century.
At a time when so many people are busily constructing individual mythologies for themselves, Pierre Joseph is having fun with the digital confusion generated by having the same name as the famous Belgian botanist. Google Pierre Joseph and mixed in with his works you’ll find Pierre Joseph Redouté's watercolors of flowers. What we have here is a playful encryption of information with the hashtag as its key.
