On the Verge: Capturing the Beauty of Impermanence
In this striking new series, Alicia Bourley captures the fleeting moment just before a bouquet of flowers bursts into motion. Each piece freezes the flowers at the brink of explosion, reflecting the transient nature of beauty and the delicate balance between fragility and intensity.
By suspending this instant in time, the series becomes a meditation on impermanence. The flowers, poised in their final moment of calm before chaos, mirror the human desire to hold onto what cannot last. There is a tension in each composition — a desperate yet poignant attempt to preserve something inherently ephemeral.
Through bold textures, vibrant colors, and dynamic forms, these artworks celebrate the raw energy and fleeting grace of natural life. The series invites viewers to pause and reflect, reminding us that beauty is at once powerful and fragile, fleeting and unforgettable.
Alicia Bourley’s mastery of form and color transforms ordinary floral subjects into something extraordinary. These exploding flowers are not just images; they are moments of suspended emotion, captured with precision and care.
