Tuscan Autumn Iced kebana of Wildflowers # 14.
The Ice & Ikebana project - - the full title is: "Icing and thawing wild Ikebanas", "Freezing and thawing Ikebana of wildflowers" - - over 70 images made so far, was conceived in the drought spring of 2022, and is "in progress ”: It is a poetic research on wildflowers or spontaneous flowers - even in metropolises! - - frozen and thawed, after being collected, selected and arranged by me on the inspiration of the Japanese art of Ikebana. This work of mine, a finalist - - already in its first steps - - in the prestigious International Photo Awards of the current year, aims to be, in addition to a celebration of the poignant beauty of wild flowers, first and foremost a cry of pain for the collapse of glaciers correlated with global warming on Planet Earth. Alongside this shared suffering, in my sensitivity the project is also a reminder of the human paradox, freezing and thawing like building and destroying. The English title also alludes to human self-centeredness: I & I come io & ice. Finally, resilient flowers are a possible symbol of the "Sapiens" who will be able to survive and proliferate despite the "global warming".
