Flower Stand on the Corner

“Flower Stand on the Corner” captures a New York flower stand transformed by color, light, and motion. The fleeting forms evoke the impermanence of beauty, not fixed but momentary, glimpsed in passing. It explores perception as a shifting boundary between form, feeling, and memory.
