A celebration of the universal profound symbol of the flower.

Paying reference to Colberts predecessor Andy Warhol. Whose flower works were taken from a magazine advert, Colbert develops the subject further into the 21st century, creating a series of highly stylised and productified flowers, exploring a universe of aesthetics within the subject. 

For me flowers are the ultimate symbols of mortal beauty,  I love how universally poetic they are. The sculptural essence of transient life, how a moment of beauty defies everything forever in the moment. 

The flower paintings have been a strand of Colberts practice for the last few years, Initially conceptually inspired by Warhols and reinvented within his unique digital world, as cactus flowers growing all over his metaverse. For this new series Colbert has dived much deeper in the subject. 

I very much believe in an art for all philosophy, and love the democratic reach digital collections have.
