Six square meters of flowers, almost sent to the dump.
Luckily, someone looked twice.

Found in Berlin, Lost Flowers was once a huge oil painting on canvas, nearly six square meters, and apparently much too inconvenient to keep.
So it was on its way out.

Luckily, someone got curious. And curiosity, as we know, has a habit of finding the good stuff. Beneath the size, weight and general trouble of the thing, there was this incredible explosion of flowers, colour, texture and painterly chaos. Deep blue, yellow, red, green and orange all fighting for attention, and somehow getting along perfectly.
Nothing about it is neat. The brushstrokes are rough, the flowers appear and disappear, and the whole painting feels like it has already lived several lives before we found it. Which, of course, is exactly why we loved it.

When translated into textile, Lost Flowers kept that same energy. The dark base makes the colors glow, while every fold reveals another flower, another brushstroke, another piece of the original painting.

A work almost lost because it was too big, too old, too difficult.
Exactly our kind of treasure.
