Hope botanical exhibition

The Art Center of Châteaugiron in Brittany hosts an ephemeral exhibition on the botanical ouvre of Vietnamese artist Duy Anh Nhan Duc.

In the heart of a chapel of the XII century the Art Center of Châteaugiron hosts the exhibition “Hope” by the botanical artist Duy Anh Nhan Duc. Nature revives here with its sacred character and gets back to its original place of living matrix.

  Dandelions, thorns of rose, clovers or oak shoots, between strength of the living and magic of seeds in dormancy, invite to connect with nature in a place that encourages communion. Les Cimes du Ciel is a nine meters wide botanical installation made of 12,000 dandelions, and seeds of dandelions on nylon thread. L’espoir is a botanical sculpture of a man completely covered with thorns of rose, being a carapace which protects but also isolates. The fresh rose hidden in his back, fades over the days and then renews and lets glimpse a glimmer of hope for change. L’éveil is a wooden sculpture covered with thousands of dandelion seeds expresses the complexity of being.
