Imagined Blooms

Imagined Blooms is a vibrant collage about creation and transformation. It is made from intricate magazine cutouts and shows a bouquet of fantastical flowers. These shapes do not exist in nature but they feel organic. For me, this work is a journey toward wholeness and co-creation between Humanity and the Divine.

• Fashion magazines
• Scissors and craft knife
• Glue stick
• Large sheet of colored cardstock (50 × 70 cm)

I have been making collage flowers in my sketchbook for a long time. This time I wanted to expand the idea and create a full-size piece that feels like a painting. Here I show the first sketch.

I prepared many petal shapes from different magazines. I collected a variety of textures and patterns for the future flowers.
3. First Flower

I assembled the first flower in this larger size. I let it rest, tested it under glass and observed how it worked from different angles.

When I saw that the concept worked, I continued and built the rest of the flowers.

When the bouquet was complete, I glued all the pieces together and finished the collage.

The final work shows a bouquet of imagined flowers. It reflects transformation and the act of co-creation.

Close-up views show the layering, the textures and the way the fragments come together.

A mockup shows how the collage looks in an interior and how it changes the atmosphere of the space.
