Das Grüne Ohr 2016

"Das Grüne Ohr" (2016) is a self-portrait by Finnish photographer Elina Brotherus. It depicts the artist seated in a simple interior, her gaze directed towards a window that fills the frame. A single green leaf in her ear suggests a connection to nature, while the overall sense of stillness evokes a sense of contemplation and introspective thought, a recurring theme in Brotherus' work. The photograph's minimalist aesthetic is typical of her photographic style.
