What can you tell us about your project?:

My project is an imaginary trip in kingdom of light and shadow where every botanical material become a kind of little planet and suddenly we are kidnapped by a sort of fliyng “ Milky Way” ...just lo try…. …

How did you incorporate the theme “Party” in your project?:

should be a big “ Party” for our sense to feel that cosmic sensation of flying around a botanical microcosmos..

What materials did you work with and why:

I like to work with every kind of material, and wax is a special material that can be tranparent but not too, creating mistery incorporating every kind of material, becoming like a virtual library…..but extremely difficult for working beeing so fragile and delicate becoming cold… a challange….

For flowers we loved to work with the special rose "Copperfield" from VIPRoses

Step by Step of "A Botanical Dream"

Step one: Creating a structure

..moving panels into our room and finding right position

...special wax transparency..

starting hard wires work......just 20 meters...

...teaching to our helping French students

finally a lot of VEGETALS...

Antonio is happy...

and students, to...we hope..

finishing touch..

WOWWWW..

working fantastic Copperfield for ducth rose grower VIP ROSES

..is becoming really true....the dream

..beauty groups..

HI! we are here!!!

..like the Milk Way...

another point of view..

..again..

..in the middle of the flow...

Why did you decide to come to Alden Biesen to work?

I was invited by Lieven and I accepted really enyojed because Fleuramour is , for me, one of the best flower show in Europe, and may be in the world; and last, but not least, is always fantastic to share this time with a formidable group of friends...
