Jefferson Fouquet, Floral Stylist, Paris

Description

A diptych composition presents a stark contrast between a broken vase and delicate flowers against a pure white backdrop. On the left, a vase with a slender neck and ornate traditional Chinese-inspired patterns is visibly shattered, with fragments held together, but also showing jagged breaks and missing pieces. Splintered ceramic shards in black, yellow, and light green accentuate the damage. On the right, a composition featuring a fully bloomed yellow flower, positioned overhead, next to a single purple clematis blossom. The green leaves and slender stem create a lively organic form, and the positioning of the flowers gives a close-up view of the botanical structures. The split screen emphasizes the tension between fragility and natural beauty.
