About "The beauty of transience"

by Gerry van Roosmalen

About the artwork

You know that? You buy/get a nice bunch of flowers and take pictures of them. You have your camera ready and looking for the right angle. You can't find that angle. You leave the flowers standing for a while, and you see the decay setting in. Again you look for the right composition, the right measure, the right proportion. It's already getting interesting. Satisfied, you put the flowers back, but you realize that the flowers are actually past their best-before date. Just before you want to throw in the bunch you get a clear moment. You throw the water out of the vase, and put the bouquet far away in a cupboard with the idea of looking at it again after a week.
Other things ghost through your mind, and you forget the flowers. A week, a month, a year, until a year and a half after that you bump into the flowers while clearing the cupboard. Dried out, and stripped of all colour, you suddenly see the real beauty of your bunch of tulips. The beauty of transience.
