Chilean Firebush

starting at €90.00

Argentina's southernmost island is magnificent in terms of both its terrain and vegetation. Fortunately, it is protected. On this island, battered by Antarctic winds, a striking red flower blooms in the spring. Underneath the bark of its stem is light pink wood, and its roots secrete acids that convert nutrients, especially phosphorus, into a form that other plants can use. The Chilean firebush is an important key plant in its habitat.

RAYS OF COLOR – A series of visual energy

Color is light, and light has a significant effect on us. Although this is partly personal and culture-dependent, it has also been proven by research. Colors affect our emotions and actions. The most popular color is clearly blue, which is perceived as harmonious, reliable, and compassionate. Red attracts attention, is dynamic, pleasant, even seductive. Sunny yellow, considered active and invigorating, increases concentration and feelings of happiness. Relaxing green, on the other hand, is the color of growth, renewal, nature, and peace. No wonder that throughout history, people have enjoyed gazing at fire and water.

The images in this series can be ordered with or without a white border and stylish info text.
