A Message From Rowenna Oberg
I am competing for people's choice during Spiva in Bloom!
Support me with a monetary donation. The floral artist that raises the most money will receive 50% of the total amount and 50% will go to George A. Spiva Center for the Arts to help with things like scholarships, outreach, classes, camps and more. Thank you for your consideration!
My statement for this piece:
-la "tree"-son des images-
Everything revolves around the tree. The root hides in the shade, the leaf worships the sun, the stone offers azote, so the soil can enjoy the sweet decay of mango, as its seeds turn into more flower, more tree. Acrobats swing from and cling to the tree, learning the meaning of height. Birds test landing on strip of bow, this one straight enough, the last one bent from growing under pressed foot a hundred years before. With fantasy, many stories hail from wise trees, or revolve around the trees that burned images into our minds like lightning playing Create Adam, reaching between earth and sky.
Please keep making myths and symbols; ones we can share with each other to unlock the secret meanings in our lives. Symbols of tomato hearts, bacon roses, ikebana sandwiches, video game characters.
