Jeannine Henebry Artist Statement
"Inflorescences"

In Inflorescences, I explore the fragile strength of botanical forms through a monochromatic lens. Each piece begins in-camera, capturing real flowers with attention to light, texture, and gesture. Using AI as a creative tool, I then reimagine these images—blending traditional technique with contemporary technology to reveal what often goes unseen.

Stripped of color and suspended in darkness, these florals become meditations on memory, structure, and resilience. By merging analog process with digital interpretation, I aim to bridge the timeless and the modern—to invite viewers into quiet moments where nature’s details speak with subtle power.

The Nocturnal series explores commonly crowded locations in the offbeat hours of the night. I look inside myself to concentrate and focus during these long shoots that often last from sunset to sunrise.

 My work is involved and complex. Using state-of-the-art high-resolution digital cameras, I capture single images without moving the tripod for hours, depending on the moon's phase. Each final image is often composed of 30 or more individual shots stacked together, showing the intricate details of the stars in the sky.

 When capturing the milky way, I preplan the shoot according to the phase of the moon in relationship to the angle of its galactic core to the foreground element.  I often use an 8% crescent moon to illuminate the foreground or add low-level lighting as an accent. Once the moon sets, the milky way will shine brightly in the sky.  When shooting along the coast, the tides also factor into my planning strategy.

 I really like pushing myself both physically and mentally.  When I am in the elements alone at night I can concentrate and see things from a different perspective. 

 Alone in the dark, I love to discover, think, and dream.
