Decorative idea number 7 Create a tryptich

Tryptich or Three Panes artwork is known since early Christian Art and even before.
In this practice, the artist uses three (...charm number) panes to convey an idea. That idea could be religious, spiritual, philosophical or in our case, just plain decorative, told on three panes instead of one.
This practice brings a new harmony, much more intresting and appealing to the eye by offering not just the composition, 'story' within one frame, but create a new story by combining three different stories into one of a higher or if you wish, deeper order.
This offers the opportunity to create new decorative (positive) tenssions:
a. On CONTENT level - the three parts of the tryptich 'dialogue' with one another, completing 'a short three chapters story'
b. On FORM level- by playing with the three parts of a tryptich, the designer can actually reshape a space and give it new a interpretation, new energies.
To demonstrate the idea I will use three of my photographs, A stalk of wheat, a buttercup and a frame of a wheat stalk in a buttercup field.







As you can see, the three elements complement each other to a decorative 'story' of a higher, conceptual level, conveyng 'spring' rather than just 'Blossom'.
In a traditional tryptich, the three panes are close together, creating one 'mega frame', landscape oriented.
My decorative suggestion is: break the patern and ...play with it!
Once you have the right components, you may place them one above the other on a vertical plane, one aside the other on an horizontal plane or - just have the biggest print you can afford, one on each wall.
The bolder, the wilder you go - the more interesting it will get :)
Your feedback on the design idea is most welcome, please tell me what you think of it.
