Theme Giant bulb – Multicolored Climbers
All over the world there are people who connect flowers with colors. These colors are the start of a new spring, new growth and new hope. Each year flowers pop up their tiny heads to rise in glory. My work symbolizes the variations of harmonious, colorful flowerbeds and the people from all over the world who come to visit the ‘Bollenstreek’. Both are various in it’s form and appearance and can grow best if there is harmony. Because Flower-Power is a statement that includes all living things and will last forever.
