In Dutch genre paintings flowers were immortalized. Impossible flowers arrangements with flowers form different seasons were constructed to give a surreal and infinite image. Through immortalizing flowers in the digital age – by copying them – a two-dimensional herbarium was formed by Sybrandy. This herbarium was magnified and printed on canvas to create a blooming flower field. Like having tea with an ‘Alice in Wonderland’ experience – continuously shrinking with every sip of tea – the flowers around you grow ever bigger.
