Events July 9th - The Americas Cup - Federico Sanchez

I think this is a very interesting issue on a global level in terms of talking about environmental conservation policies. I am totally opposed to indiscriminate felling in the Amazon or any other region of the planet. My personal connection with the Amazon is in the air I breathe every day. I think people will remember the image I want to convey in terms of the Amazon’s potential for recovery in the not-too-distance future, bearing in mind that change is in our hands. This event is a great showcase for exhibiting and disseminating my hopes.

Native flora without a doubt, as well as the plant and non-floral materials which support my work, creating an image and sensation as close to reality as possible. Anthuriums, ivies, orchids, branches, moss, etc.

A completely decorative asymmetric structure with free-flowing lines.

What were your first thoughts when you knew you would attend The Americas Cup?

I was really excited, as it represents a personal challenge.

It’s a structural arrangement which focus on the flowers, it’s a Floral Garden with a parallel technique.

Anthurium and tropical plants

Was it difficult creating a miniature arrangement?

No.
