In the list of flowers of longevity the jacaranda falls to the bottom, but oh what a fall. As part of the Match Box Project I made this small scene with one blossom in mid-air - well, really swinging on its trapeze of Silko. I made five flowers, one for this box and four to give away as ephemeral brooches. My friend Sybille tells me there is one German word which means a copy of a thing that lasts slightly longer than the thing! This somehow makes this tiny project complete.
