In Blooming Orchids, Carolina Garcia captures the vibrant, spontaneous symphony of color that unfolds in her own backyard in Miami, Florida. Each piece in this series is a translation — a visceral, intuitive response to the dazzling moment when her orchids bloom all at the same time, transforming her everyday morning ritual of drinking coffee into a sensory celebration.
Through layered textures, organic forms, and vivid hues, Carolina explores the subconscious processing of her environment, where observation becomes emotion and memory morphs into abstraction. The realization that these colors and shapes found their way into her work almost unconsciously speaks to the profound bond between humans and nature — one important theme in her artistic practice.
Blooming Orchids invites viewers to reflect on how deeply our surroundings imprint themselves upon us, and reminds us that we are not merely observers of nature, but an inseparable part of its ongoing story. This series stands as both a joyful homage to the beauty of the natural world and a testament to the intuitive, transformative power of art.
