“Blossom is my attempt to display the romantic imagining of beauty meandering amidst falling gentleness. Life's beauty is the growing journey through ups and downs. Despite all challenges and negativity, blossoms will always pop up year after year, providing hope and color when times seem to be despairing. Cherry trees grow in regions with cold winters. The more brutal the winter, the sweeter the fruit. Cherry blossoms remind us that all seasons come to an end and that times of prosperity will always come around again. Cherry blossoms, lotus blossoms, plum blossoms; they all symbolize the transcendent nature of being alive. We bloom, we shed, we decay, we hibernate and wait for the right light to start the whole process over again. Blossoms spend seasons in disguise until they gloriously reveal themselves in a flurry of pastel-petaled dramato the sight and the smell, marking another miraculous full trip around the sun.”
