Around Amor, like a progression, everything seems to unravel into strata, guiding us towards a zone where the boundaries between flower and fabric become increasingly blurred. It’s also the story of a world, the one that comes after Eden, where a cloak covers shame and solitude imposes itself on human beings now forsaken by each other and on bouquets of cut flowers, deprived of their roots.
