Picture a summer day when a sunflower decides to fly. That is exactly what this piece is. Every petal is cut from felt and dipped one by one into a colour bath, until the hue bleeds softly into itself, the way light settles over real petals. At the nose rest real sunflower seeds, dyed dark, full and fresh as if lifted from the heart of a bloom. The airplane is not a whole flower but a single section cut from one, a piece of sunflower that has risen from the field and drifts off across the summer green.
