Late Bloomers Tecnica: Photograph of flower arrangement and rescued vase Dimensione: 40cm x 60cm Anno: 2026 Descrizione: “All in Your Head” reflects on the invisible things we carry within us and the ways they shape our experience of the world. The work explores the idea that our inner landscapes—thoughts, beliefs, fears, hopes, memories, and dreams—are never truly contained. They grow, intertwine, and eventually find expression beyond ourselves. Flowers become a metaphor for what we cultivate internally. Some emerge vibrant and expansive, others fragile, fading, or wild and uncontrolled, yet all are part of the same living ecosystem. What takes root within us influences how we see, feel, and move through the world. The work invites reflection on self-awareness and personal responsibility for the stories we nurture. It encourages viewers to consider the narratives, assumptions, and emotional patterns they cultivate over time, and how these unseen forces influence their actions, relationships, and sense of identity. “All in Your Head” embraces complexity and ambiguity. It suggests that our inner worlds are in constant transformation, shaped by experience, attention, and choice. What remains unseen is often as powerful as what is visible, quietly influencing the course of our lives in ways both subtle and profound. -
Late Bloomers Tecnica: Photograph of flower arrangement and rescued vase Dimensione: 40cm x 60cm Anno: 2026 Descrizione: “Labels” reflects on the growing role that certifications, labels and marketing claims play in shaping our choices and perceptions. In a world filled with promises of being healthier, safer, more ethical, or more sustainable, we often rely on these signals to help us decide what to trust and value. The work explores how our understanding of something is increasingly influenced by the information attached to it even if some things are obvious. Labels can provide reassurance and help us navigate a complex world, but they can also shape our opinions before we have had the chance to form our own experience. At its core, the work invites reflection on trust and authenticity. How do we decide what is good, valuable, or worth our attention? How much of that judgment comes from our own experience, and how much comes from the messages surrounding us? “Labels” encourages viewers to consider the role that labels and certifications play in everyday life. It suggests that while they can help us make informed choices, they can also become filters through which we experience the world, shaping our expectations long before we encounter something ourselves. -
Late Bloomers Tecnica: Photograph of flower arrangement and rescued vase Dimensione: 40cm x 60cm Anno: 2026 Descrizione: “Nothing to Hide” is a composition built around a “flower frog”, a reusable metal structure used to support and shape floral arrangements. The piece references earlier, more sustainable methods of flower arranging, when flower frogs were commonly used before the widespread introduction of synthetic floral foam in the 1950s. Today, floral foam is widely used for its convenience, but it is also increasingly criticized for its environmental impact. Against the growing critique of single-use floral foam and the emerging “No Floral Foam” movement, this work points back to reusable ways of building floral compositions. The arrangement inverts typical floral design practices in which support structures are usually hidden from view. Here, the mechanic – the flower frog – is deliberately exposed and becomes the central element of the composition, with nothing to hide. Dried flowers emerge from a mid-century “rescued vase” discovered at a flea market in London, supported by the exposed flower frog, highlighting impermanence, change, and layers of history.
