About Memories of Rose and Journey of the Blue Kupamba Nafasi
Kazi hii imechochewa na hadithi ya mapenzi iliyopo nyuma ya picha ya "Marthe de Florian", kazi ya Giovanni Bellini. Mpangilio wenye rangi ya waridi unamwakilisha yeye kama mwigizaji aliyeishi Paris wakati wa enzi za kifahari kabla ya vita. Waridi linawakilisha upendo. Kwa upande mwingine, ile ya rangi ya buluu inawakilisha nguvu ya mwanamke anayetangatanga kupitia kimbunga cha vita, lakini kamwe bila kukata tamaa na akiomba mapambazuko. Maua mawili makubwa yaliyopinda yanawakilisha njia inayopaswa kufuatwa, na mmea wa buluu uliokaushwa unaitwa "mti wa msafiri" na unaashiria nyakati zinazobadilika.

- 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". - Image Credits
