Floriography
Wood box, text, 26 slides with different plant samples, 4 x 14 x 22 cm, 2014.

The work ”Floriography” is based on a cryptic system in which one communicates through various flower arrangements. This is something that flourished during the Victorian era, when it was strictly forbidden to openly display feelings between man and woman. The work portrays a dictionary from this period. I based the choice of plants on the assortment cultivated by my father in his commercial garden.
