The woman has no head or hands, but her main sexual characteristics are paraded. That makes the viewer think about female nature at all. Who is the real woman? What is the female mission? Is feminity a physical characteristic or an inner nature?

«HEART», 2015
40 х 50 cm
oshibana on reused cardboard
The second work in the "Flo ver" series is "Heart". It is intentionally made larger than “Head” to emphasize its importance in the context of the series. Petals were infected with mold fungus to make them alive. Mold is gradually damaging the petals, so the picture is slowly changing over time. “Heart" will eventually disappear and that makes it special. We always value things that are not meant to last forevermore . With this work I motivate people to think about love. Is it limited? Is it changing over the time? I want this artwork to be a kind of reminder that nothing has eternal life, even their feelings, even the lives of their belongings, and their own lives. I want people to pay attention to the fact the most fragile parts of their lives are the most important at the same time.

What is the role of the woman's body in the game of searching for a potential partner in the format of a planet , stretching for millennia means? The part of the human's body in sexual relationships is overvalued nowadays, that is why many people transform their bodies, trying to be like famous people. As a result, a lot of similar human copies are created. But when potential partners choose between these identical toys, how do they make their choices? The answer is that there are many other factors. If the physical factor is only one out of many , why is it on its pedestal ?
