Stylist Elize Eveleens has had innumerable quantities of flowers and plants in front of her lens for her work. But these two photographs with Anthuriums are amongst her personal favourites.<\/p>\n
A blown-up copy of the photograph of the young woman with a remarkably large Anthurium hangs in her office. And although the picture dates from a few years ago, she never gets bored of it: \u201cI feel it\u2019s a good example of \u2018girl power\u2019 which simultaneously shows of the strength and ruggedness of the Anthurium well.\u201d<\/p>\nPhoto by Elize Eveleens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Ordinariness<\/strong><\/p>\n
The photograph of a man with a hat and an Anthurium appeals to her because of the ordinariness. \u201cThings are true to life in this picture. Nothing is being beautified here.\u201d All that Elize has done – as she also did with \u2018girl power\u2019 – is to place the colourful plants against a white background. But that\u2019s no more than a photographer\u2019s trick to make the picture a bit clearer.<\/p>\n
Survivor<\/strong><\/p>\n
Anthuriums hold a special place in her heart for various reasons. She finds the plant idiosyncratic and she is charmed by the variety of colours. \u201cCertain types change from pink to green after a while – I really like that.\u201d Also important is the fact that Anthuriums make few demands. Her studio\/workshop contains a plant which is more than a year old. \u201cIt\u2019s the ideal plant for people with a busy life. A companion who waits loyally for you and just keeps on going.\u201d<\/p>\nPhoto by Elize Eveleens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
In a rucksack<\/strong><\/p>\n
The remarkable nature of the bond between Anthuriums and Elize is shown by the fact that she once took a plant with her \u2026 on holiday. She laughs: \u201cYes, we were going off in the campervan and I thought it should have a plant. We spent six weeks touring through Norway, and I really did photograph that plant everywhere. It even came along on a walk along a fjord. I just popped it in a rucksack.\u201d<\/p>\n
