paulina salais moncada

ART SUBMISSION PAULINA SALAIS MONCADA Jardin De Rosas was inspired aft er my grandmothers, mi Abuelita Rosa y mi Abuelita Tencha. “Rosa” means “rose,” and “Tencha” is short for “Hortencia,” which comes from the Roman word “hortus” meaning “garden.” Apart from the literal meaning, my grandmothers both have beautiful gardens at their homes, and mi Abuelita Tencha had all sorts of beautiful ornaments and decorations at her home. Jardin De Rosas is a handheld object, fi tting nicely in the palm of the hand. The frame of this piece is made out of copper, and the fl owers are made out of polymer clay and painted with acrylic paint.
