The installation “Flowers of the Sea” makes iridescent bulbs of light bloom in the lighting poles and tall palm stems of Liberty Square – overlooking the Gulf of Salerno. The title, chosen by the artist, plays on the reference to Charles Baudelaire’s “Les Fleurs du Mal,” while evoking the link with the sea and its Correspondences: “Nature is a temple where living pillars sometimes emit confused words; man passes through it through forests of symbols that observe it with familiar gazes. Like long echoes that from afar merge into a tenebrous, deep unity as vast as night and as light, scents, colors and sounds respond.” Here lampposts and palms become luminous “pillars” that dialogue with each other in a vibrant garden of luminous stems and multicolored spheres, inviting the visitor, a modern flâneur through the streets of the city of Salerno, to a sensory experience suspended between poetry and magic.
