Flower Study 3 by Blaise Hayward

About the artist

Blaise Hayward (b. 1964, Toronto) is a photographer and sculptor based in New York. In 1996 he moved to the United States, where he has maintained a commercial photography studio for decades. Throughout this time he also produced fine-art photography, which is now the main focus of his time and energy, as is creating mobiles and bronze sculptures. Hayward recently completed America - The Statehood Quarters and is continuing work on several projects including The Honest Portrait, his Botanical Studies and Tickets Please, which will be published by Rizzoli New York in the spring of 2027. His work resides in many private and corporate collections.

About the Series

The Botanical series was photographed in the spring of 2020 using natural light, with both positive and negative fill, and a deliberately shallow depth of field. Hayward captures the vitality and impermanence of the subjects, moving between purity and collapse. Petals fold and fray, embodying both fragility and resilience, resulting in a body of work with an almost painterly quality.

These works are digital pigment prints, printed on Canson rag photographique paper and are accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity. Botanicals II will debut in 2026.
