X-mas wreath de luxe
A small straw wreath is attached to a wreath of Oasis floral foam in the center. This is wrapped with small dried sprigs. Gold-colored Gouri cups are glued to the straw wreath, giving it a luxurious look. The Oasis wreath is first wrapped with a burlap band incorporating bark and then lined all around with Eucalyptus bark. Different varieties of rose hips make up the fruitful filling of the wreath. Small butterfly orchids and flowers of Gomphrena connect the rose hips with the golden fruits.
What reflects
Two golden yellow glass vases that perfectly coordinate with the gold-rimmed mirror form the base. Branches and a metal leaf carefully integrated into this composition play a connecting
factor in this creation. Branches of chamber pines hang in the branches as natural Christmas decorations. Amaryllis, Anthurium and Rhipsalis enhance the green lines. Vanda orchids are placed outside the vases in water tubes while Clematis fluff provides a frilly effect. A work that looks at what reflects. In the mirror, direction becomes visible, as well as returning light, life.
Guard post of light
Refined woven willow branches form the
sturdy base of this natural candlestick. Metal branches, leaves and a candle holder bring balance. Chamberlains, Vanda, lily and Rhipsalis make up the floral fill. A single white candle
symbolizes a sentinel of light. The wood reaches to the earth, the flame to the sky. In between, the field, nature, a reminder of what continues to burn.
Circle of Life
In this creation, a willow circle is the support for a special combination of botanical materials: chamber pines, Vanda, Amaryllis, Clematis fluff, lilies, Leucospermum, Calathea and Rhipsalis. Metal sprite lines and self-created metal leaves help direct the creation. A work that listens to space. The circle catches the light as the field catches the sun. Christmas as a return of life that never completely disappeared.
Floating in equilibrium
At the origin of this floating
creation is a beautifully shaped branch.
All the botanical materials, such as the branch, chamber pines, Amaryllis, Vanda, Anthurium, Clematis fluff as well as the metal sprite lines and leaves themselves determine the direction of this work that finds itself
between heaviness and breath. It is not
bound to ground or ceiling but
floating in balance. The in-between space
is also point of rest. There where light and
direction meet.
The tree
A very unusually shaped root base was selected as the base to which branches are attached chambered like real tree branches. Clematis fluff serves as natural decoration, reflecting in the glass globes. A number of metal leaf shapes enhance the whole, a single metal sprite points the height
up. This is a field creature at rest.
It recalls light returning, days lengthening,
of growth waiting in silence.
