Bloom like flowers.
In this signature series of mine, flowers as the object represent life itself to me. Our own will to be alive, and the way we want to be alive. While I carefully paint these tiny flower petals or build up those fine leaf veins, it is like the way we try to figure out those uncertainties, furthermore, to be able to be closer to the truth a little bit more.
Artwork inspired by nature at Royal Botanic Garden, Cranbourne, Spring, 2021.
