What would life be without flowers. They fascinate with their beauty, bring a bit of nature into everyday life, set color accents at festivals and celebrations. A bouquet of flowers can express many things, whether for a birthday or as a small gift in between, as a thank or as a consolation. But the natural beauties are subject to transience. Only art succeeds in capturing these unique moments of being and preserving them in perpetuity. More than 40 artisans have been inspired by nature's flowering splendor and have expressed their concentrated creativity: from jewelry to textiles, from ceramics to glass – and sometimes the boundaries to art are crossed. A Garden of Eden in the middle of the city, which may and should be entered.
