Bid Farewell by Shunxin Chen

Necklace  /  Natural   NewTalentsByKlimt02
 
Plants we love, 
accompany us day and night, 
flowers include our wishes, 
eventually, they end up in the trash. 

Plants and flowers have a supporting role, 
in the world they leave traces of their existence, 
tell about happy moments that they gave us. 

Finally these will disappear, 
which is really sad isn't? 



 
I had a plant that had lived stayed for several years dead home, I didn't know how to deal with it for a long time. In the end, I threw it in the trash. But afterwards, I felt regret 
and started to reflect on the reason why I treated it like this. When this is a life I love, the trashcan should not be its destination. 
How do we treat the life that accompanies us day and night? 
My project is about wishes, about remembrance. I use broken or fragile-looking flowers and plants to represent their crumbling state in our human society. I am trying to commemorate our emotions and honour their lives.
