After the Rain

Sixteen abandoned umbrellas, found on city streets, are transformed into flowers, butterflies, and moths, by the internationally renowned photographer Abraham Menashe.


Menashe writes, “Rain falls, tapping the earth on its shoulders. Like the steady beats of an alarm clock, it entreats humanity to face life boldly, reminding the living not to despair in the presence of loss, for renewal will come after the rain.”


The revived umbrellas reveal beauty inherent in the discarded object, and deepen our awareness to the ever changing face of life.
