SUMMARY:From Bloom to Decay: A Floral Installation
DESCRIPTION:“Foraged art is making art with what you find and finding art in what you see.” Bloom and Decay transforms an industrial space into a lush\, immersive garden using floral sculptures crafted from botanicals and found materials. Inspired by Flower House Mexico\, this project brings together San Francisco-based floral designers & multi-media artists to reimagine space\, the natural world\, and community. Embracing the ephemeral nature of plants\, the work celebrates the full lifecycle of botanical material—from bloom to decay—encouraging a deeper appreciation for the fleeting yet powerful presence of nature in our everyday lives.  \nLeslie Jonath is curator\, book packager and event producer. She works with floral designers to create books and events including Floret Flower Farm\, Ariella Chezar\, and artist Mary Jo Hoffman.
