## Caption

Michael Wesely uses innovative photographic techniques to render images of fleeting beauty in 21st-century still-lifes, effectively presenting portraits of time. Wesely, who is best known for creating years-long photo-documentation of urban building projects, employs an extended shutter speed to show yellow tulips in bud, bloom, and disintegration in a single image, their entire lifespan captured permanently in the photographic frame. ⁠
