About Memories of Rose and Journey of the Blue Qurxinta Booska

Shaqadan waxaa dhiirrigeliyay sheekada jacaylka ee ka dambeysa sawirka "Marthe de Florian", oo ah shaqo uu sameeyay Giovanni Bellini. Habaynta midabka jaan-lida ah ayaa u taagan iyada oo ah jilaayad ku noolayd Paris intii lagu jiray xilligii quruxda badnaa ee ka horreeyay dagaalka. Jaan-lida waxay u taagan tahay jacayl. Midabka buluugga ah, dhinaca kale, wuxuu u taagan yahay xoogga naag ku wareegaysa duufaanka dagaalka, laakiin marnaba aan quusan oo u ducaysanaysa waaberiga. Labada ubax ee waaweyn ee qalooca waxay u taagan yihiin waddada la marayo, ubaxa buluugga ah ee qalalanna waxaa la yiraahdaa "geedka safarka" wuxuuna astaan u yahay xilliyada isbeddelaya.

A protrusion to the upper left painted white, is a dry plant and meant to symbolize Giovanni's passionate hands. You can see a crystal pearl hanging from it, signifying Florian's tears with emotion. The other piece in blue shows contrasting emotions of despair of war.

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".
