The installation is based on a vivid dream I had about colorful lotus like flowers cascading from the ceiling. The dream was about transformation, being in the present moment and transcendance. I've been trying to find a flower that is both a representation of my culture US  and my husbands Indian. I see the marigold as very universal not strictly Asian as the lotus seems to imply and I love the tie in with the idea that marigolds produce intense vivid dreams. I think I found my flower. Thanks for the great blog and images...I will use them for inspiration.
