The Cosmology of a flower, or seeing the cosmic movements in the plant world is an ongoing research project that engages with the idea that flowers are earthly reflections of celestial bodies. Inspired by the book The Life of Plants, from philosopher Emanuele Coccia, this project explores the visual and conceptual resemblance of flowers and stars, echoing their singular relationship, one mediated by light.

Découvrir la forme des étoiles dans le vivant terrestre et lourd, dans la noirceur de la matière
les explosions de pétales et de feuilles, les spirales de vie des branches, des poussées infinies.

Ce paradoxe du végétal. Transformer la lumière, l’invisible, le lumineux, en matière dense, noire, qui s’engouffre dans le sol.
Vers un retour à la profondeur de la matière mystérieuse astrale.

Imagine that: the flowers have a perception of space, of stars, of how light and energy is born, of how one celestial body occupies space, how it interacts with another and how they compose the sky together, in its infinite depth of lights and darkness, of explosions and containment, full circle of life and death in one body, ever changing around a dense core.
