Further Flora - Ceramic Art in Blooming Form


Frequent visitors to this site may already know of my love of flowers.

 (Vanessa Hogge at Cockpit Arts Studio, London via This is Colossal)

How much more could I love them if they never died?


But persisted with me?


In a more robust form?  I first fell in love with ceramic flowers 


placed at French gravesites.  


What can be a more striking visual dialogue between fragility and durability

 (Zemer Peled here)

than this medium, in this form?  With these results?


And what about the wonderings that these manifestations of precision and consideration


of observation and complexity evoke?  Beyond the dream and romance


that has, and always has been, the lore and allure

(Molly Hatch also via This is Colossal)


of flowers?  Blooming Marvelous these pieces are!  Am I wrong?
