Building Covered With Stunning Flower Mural Seemingly Touchable By Visual Artist
Through magnificent mural art, San Francisco-based artist Mona Caron is able to cast a light up the world of unseen plants.
Recently, Caron has finished an extensive painting of a flower on the façade of San Jose’s convention center, completely decorating five flat surfaces with lush, pastel-colored plants.
This amusing mural seems to represent one continuous flower even from different angles, and is named Limonium after one type of California marsh rosemary.
To do this, Caron superimposed a photograph of the plant onto the multi-plane building and made calculated reference points to instruct her painting. The thriving flower begins at the base of the walls, framing the door, and extends towards the roof.
“They may be tiny, but they break through concrete,” the artist clarifies on her personal pages. “They are everywhere and yet unseen. And the more they get stepped on, the stronger they grow back.”
She says that her project’s dedicated and “created as a tribute to the resilience of all those beings who no one made room for, were not part of the plan, and yet keep coming back, pushing through and rising up.”
