Sebastian Cramer explores the seldom-used photographic technique of stereoscopy in Two Views on Plants. Over nine years, Cramer has captured images of plants that, when viewed with 3D glasses, transform into delicate, almost alien sculptural forms. This work invites readers to reconsider visual perception and the spatial experience of natural forms.

Although it is one of the oldest techniques in photography, stereoscopy receives little attention in contemporary photography. Wrongly so, as the timeless works in this book show. For nine years now, Sebastian Cramer has been working on his project Two Views, which is presented in book form for the first time in this volume.

Its focus is on images of plants that look like nothing ever seen before. Viewed through 3D glasses, the seemingly familiar natural forms take on a thoroughly unique quality: delicate and fragile, sometimes alien, appear the leaves and blossoms as they form into a photographic sculpture.

Two Views on Plants is a book about visual perception and the experience of space.
