The Indispensable Flowers are small sculptures made of wire mesh and iron wire, inspired by the inflorescences of wild pioneer grasses, picked at different stages of their life cycle.
Originally conceived as elements of the Pioneer sculptures—female figures bent over to observe a flower sprouting at their feet—the Indispensable Flowers have evolved into independent works.
Her study of pioneer grasses, resilient species that thrive in hostile terrain, promoting environmental regeneration, has driven Raffaella to experiment with modeling and coloring, freeing these vibrant flowers from their original integration.
A personal technique transforms the rigidity of the wire mesh into soft, mobile, and unique forms.
These works convey a symbolic message of care for nature: they introduce it where it is missing and invite us to observe and protect it where it is present.
The flower can be purchased with a metal stand/base.
