This artwork is already the sixth piece in The Floral Essence series. This image shows a peony that has bloomed in all its glory. Now the flower has arrived at the end of its existence. The petals have wilted, dried in, blossomed out. The peony has reached its essence, has brought beauty and joy to life on earth, has reached its full potential. The Floral Essence is about the essence of life. The essence of existence expressed at the end.
This artwork is also about the beauty of life found in all stages. Where a flower bud stands at the beginning and looks out into the world expectantly, the wilted flower has accomplished. It is glorious, powerful and serene at the same time.
The sculpture is composed in a minimalist way that fully expresses the essential beauty of the faded flower. Subdued hues predominate, with a faded pale pink hue visible in the petals. It is a style that looks great with both modern, classic and vintage interiors.
