Play/ground show is explores the contrast and intertwining of gentleness and roughness. While there’s a garden in the landscape and also a flame within it, one can see the embers through the delicate and deceptive curves of the stems and flowers. It’s a vision with one side of destruction and one side of life. The twist and blend of colors and playful forms, create circles that evoke a dreamland, striving to survive and reproduce, along with the life-giving, destructive, and magical fire.

The luminous hands offering fire or a flower to me, evoke the presence of humanity as a consuming, disrupting, enjoying, and interacting force with nature, a living world that has infinite life within it. Intertwined and magical worlds within worlds. I want every time I see a delicate stem or a dry leaf to go beyond just touching it and know that I am not just observing a flower, I am witnessing the magic of a seed birth. I ask myself, when I am enchanted by nature, do I lose my connection with reality or do I find lost realities?
