Swedish artist Ulrika Berge creates lively sculptures with threads. These flowers, handmade with sewing machine, are of the size of a human. With the gentle pulling force between the threads, the flowers seem to have come to life as they move or even "breathe", inviting people to take a closer look at the work. People are able to walk freely among the flowers and experience the subtle nuances in the relationship between themselves, the work, and the surroundings.

When observing the growing process of flowers, Berge was deeply moved by the beauty of nature and life and hence was inspired to create this series. She believes that beauty is a mystery of life as well as a way of communication. The moment when we sense beauty is like that instant experience of meditation, filled with joy, ease and the strength regained after calming down.

Exhibition Occurred in Taipei City.
