The Design

About Memories of Rose and Journey of the Blue Raumdekoration

Diese Arbeit ist inspiriert von der Liebesgeschichte hinter dem Porträt "Marthe de Florian", einem Werk von Giovanni Bellini. Das rosafarbene Arrangement stellt sie als Schauspielerin dar, die während der glamourösen Vorkriegszeit in Paris lebte. Die Rose steht für die Liebe. Das blaue Arrangement hingegen verkörpert die Stärke einer Frau, die durch den Strudel des Krieges wandert, aber niemals verzweifelt und für die Morgendämmerung betet. Die zwei großen geschwungenen Blumen stehen für den einzuschlagenden Weg, und die getrocknete blaue Pflanze wird "Baum des Reisenden" genannt und symbolisiert den Wandel der Zeit.

Inspiration: The inspiration for this art work, consisting of two pieces, comes from the story behind the painting, "Portrait of Marthe de Florian" by Italian painter Giovanni Boldini. The painting had been sleeping for 70 years until it was discovered at Florian's apartment in Paris. This work is an homage to the beautiful memories of Giovanni and his lover Florian. "La Memoire De La Rose " (left) depicts the story of her elegant life in Paris. "La Voyage Bleu" (right) is the image of her life after the war. She lived with dignity.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2016 in Tokyo and was exhibited in Flower Art Award In Tokyo Midtown in April 2017
Operation Flow: Display Tips: 1.Overall coloration may fade overtime, therefore avoidance of the direct sun light is advisable.
2. You can arrange them side by side as shown in the photo. Depending on the space available, you may place them apart from each other. It might be interesting to display it with each facing away from the other, back to back in a place like a museum where the audience flow can be dictated. Such flow must allow viewing "La Memoire De La Rose" first , followed by "La Voyage de Bleu".
