The Design

About Memories of Rose and Journey of the Blue Dekoracija prostora

Ovo delo je inspirisano ljubavnom pričom koja stoji iza portreta "Marthe de Florian", dela Đovanija Belinija. Aranžman u boji ruže predstavlja je kao glumicu koja je živela u Parizu tokom glamurozne predratne ere. Ruža predstavlja ljubav. Plava, s druge strane, predstavlja snagu žene koja luta kroz vrtlog rata, ali nikada ne očajava i moli se za svitanje. Dva velika povijena cveta predstavljaju put kojim treba krenuti, a osušena plava biljka naziva se "putničko drvo" i simbolizuje vremena koja se menjaju.

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".
