The Fragility of Time

Designer Ignacio Canales Aracil created these fantastic sculptures by pressing and drying wildflowers collected from gardens and nurseries in the UK. The flowers are held together without any structure or glue, they stand and stick together as the straw in a hat after being dried and pressed all at once. The roughness of the process that requires lots of physical effort contrast with the delicacy and fragility of the finished sculpture.
