"Mapplethorpe's flowers are as carefully positioned as his human subjects. His still lifes are stark — usually only one or two flowers, and often in shadow — but they display a raw sexuality even more powerful than that of the nudes. His treatment of the male and female aspects of the calla lily is most striking, one photograph emphasizing the flower's phallic stamen, another emphasizing its feminine curves."
