“Archipelago Flowers” celebrate Philippine nature, capturing the essence of the country's diverse landscape. With its lively hues and unbalanced edges resembling the silhouette of flower petals, these art pieces invite viewers to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the country. Upon close inspection, the grooves and textured patches across each piece resemble the veins of a flower merged with the concentric patterns found in geodes.

Created by French artist Thomas Godin, “Archipelago Flowers” is part of the art collection titled “Archipelago.” This collection stands as a heartfelt homage to the Philippines, a country Godin has not only visited numerous times but also plans to make his permanent home.

Godin is known for his specialized printmaking technique, a complex process that demands a unique blend of artistic vision and meticulous attention to the chemistry involved. He begins by etching on a metal plate, soaking this in a natural vat of acid, then transferring the designs using ink and paint on to quality paper. His mastery of this technique allows him to create pieces that are not only visually stunning but also multi-layered in texture and depth.
