It is a common place in art to resort to the floral theme as a metaphor or allegory of the emotional states of the human being, if not as a symbolic resource of the passage of time. It is difficult not to associate a beautiful flower with the splendor of youth; or withering with old age, if not with sadness. Seeing how inevitably a beautiful bouquet of flowers slowly fades is a good example of nostalgia. Despite not being a subject, the flowers, in any of their possibilities as a pictorial motif, that have aroused my attention, the lived circumstances led me to them as the common place they are, to transfer into them the desolation and sadness for those beautiful moments of life that she believed, incautiously, would be forever. It is when everything around you decays, that you do not see only flowers that wither. Like those gerberas that paled in a dirty glass jar and that one day, after accounting for them, you feel that you have to capture on canvas with all the grandeur and solemnity possible. And as you transfer that withering to the canvas, the nostalgia slowly turns to melancholy, because you understand that there will be new moments to live, and from that withering hope springs up again in the form of a beautiful flower. Ortegamente, they are my circumstances.
