Statement From The Artists:

By providing a space for people to appreciate the beauty of nature in a familiar setting, we can express our gratitude for everything that the earth provides. Pollination, the process that creates new flowers, fruits, and therefore life, occurs in the flower’s disk. Flower Power allows one to exist momentarily where this wonderous process takes place. And the larger-than-life scale exhibits the grandness and importance of nature.

Our hope is that by sharing this space with the public, we can all gain a deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness of all living beings, and a deeper drive to protect the environment for the benefit of all. With a bit of curiosity and kindness, we can all do better for the earth and each other.
