The Flowers will Bloom on the same Way

Pictorial Installation

This installation highlights the unique environmental privilege that Andorra represents, through the richness and diversity of its flora. By traveling across the Andorran territory through the lens of its flowers, I offer a poetic and sensitive journey through its landscapes. In Andorra, time seems suspended, shaped by the seasons, the rains, the thermal contrasts and the altitude. These particular conditions have created a rare ecosystem, where certain plant species have become endemic to each parish of the country. Through this work, I question nature’s capacity to resist and reclaim its place, despite the damage caused by humans. Nature asserts itself, patient and sovereign, and always ends up reappearing where it is least expected. Accompanied by botanical experts, I selected seven emblematic flowers, each specific to an Andorran parish. These flowers served as the starting point for a series of seven large-format oil paintings on natural linen canvas. Each canvas depicts an endemic flower, accompanied by a scientific explanatory panel. The large format reinforces the presence of nature, inviting the viewer into a contemplative experience. The installation aims to underline the singular beauty of the Andorran landscape, while reminding us of our vulnerability before it. By placing the viewer face to face with the grandeur of the plant world, I wish to awaken an awareness: nature does not need us to exist — it will always find its way back.
