Flower is
the simple form on nature. It can be treated as something untouchable, a part
of the earth, its cold, brown ground. But we make it into an object, an
embellishment, imposing it with beauty emphasized by a crystal vase, so as soon
it wilts, we throw it away, as it reminds us that beauty is a transient.
Flowers
have been painted all over the years. If part of landscapes, they contributed
to the radiance of the view. If sketched as a central element of the work of
art, they defined the ultimate beauty canon of the age. Then, they were applied
onto fabrics and textiles. So when they folded as a cover of our duvet or a pattern
on our beloved dress, we could feel our attractiveness glowing out.
The flower
is a synonym of something desirable that we want to observe from a distance and
possess at the same time. Our attitude to flower reflects our attitude towards love
and life.
