Still Life series - Expressed through Objects
						
Experiences of events and life establish our outlook on life, and begin to also generate emotional connections with objects, as if the past is condensed in specific objects, from a pencil case used since childhood, to an old houseplant, a favorite cup, and even memories of the changing seasons. This series gives meaning to objects, such as: airtight jars, with the function of conservation, however when connected to blooming flowers, take on the meaning of retaining youth. Another example is a wine glass filled with wine, often in celebration or in sadness. Putting flowers in it gives it the meaning of being intoxicated with youth, with life passing every moment. The “present” includes the “past” and the “future.” I often include my hopes and expectations for the future in my work, such as hyacinths that are about to bloom, or roses in full bloom but are about to wither, or flowers on the verge of wilting. Everything is surprising and unpredictable. The objects in the image are like actors on stage, improvising.
