The mockingbird sings a thousand songs, forever anew ...
Astrid's canvas captures the transformative power of the season's essence and the life it embodies. Her retrospective works from 2008 to the present anchors summer's dynamism and its ability to inspire and renew. She merges a modern aesthetic in symbolic forms of flowers and birds as metaphors for growth, beauty, and learning, reminding us of nature's power to uplift and the lessons it can teach us. "Summer in Bloom" invites viewers to immerse themselves in nature and its complex role in human life, acting as a potential cause and causality.
