Antena
With its base in the ground and pointing to the sky, Antena is a monument to power that prompts contemplation and reflection on what we are. Flores Cosmos invites you to see the patio as a space for devotion, with the creative energy of the Universe expressed through flowers and plants. In the middle of the patio, the installation fills everything with colour and texture. We can only perceive its very essence inside ourselves.
In this metaphor the plant kingdom is God…and the patio its temple.
Ten years ago, in Barcelona, they had a vision of returning to Mexico to make a radical change in their lives: opening a florist’s. At FLORA, having by now become a benchmark for floral art in Latin America, they return to Spain to bring a marvellous circle to a close, as they have asserted. Their signature style features experimentation in shapes, colours and materials. They work with flowers as they could with any other material: what they do is pure sensitivity, artistic vision and creative boldness. They dream of setting up a floral installation at the Sculpture Space in the UNAM, in the forest of Kyoto or on the moon.
Music of the installation: original music by Billy Méndez.
