Already František Kupka and in front of him and after him and after and after and after and after him and after him and after him, from a human perspective, perhaps even blatant, uncomfortable sensuality of plants and flowers. And also the intertwiness of their empire with cosmic principles, a higher order. It seems that even after centuries of scientific research on the secrets of flora we know only a minimum. If we leave Racia and we prefer to look, feel and experience, maybe we will learn something that they will not tell us in biology lessons.

Petr Nikl for 100pcs

In this image, which I consider to be a plant, but it can actually be anything you imagine. It has a stall, but if it didn't, it can be played with it, perhaps turn itside upside down. The flower is fantasy, I let it grow gradually - from intuition. Ie. I started with some point, he started to wind and wind up until I stopped it at one point. So I didn't know what it would look like from the beginning. I let it grow in time.
