The orange and yellow genda phool (marigolds) are in bloom and floral artist Philipp Von Arx from Switzerland, is working with 320 kilogram of the flower for a special immersive exhibition in Delhi, where visitors can walk through colourful, dreamlike floating clouds
“Flowers represent a multitude of emotions and feelings; to me they signify hopes and dreams,” he says, about his show of floral clouds titled ‘SwitzerlandIndia in Bloom’ which goes live at the Swiss Embassy on October 13.
The renowned floral artist from Olten, living in Zurich, chose marigolds for his artwork because, he says, the flower holds a special place in all Indian festivals and ceremonies. “It is the best choice for celebrating friendships”.
