About the Item

“Dragon Nebula” features a majestic dragon intricately woven from an array of lush flowers, demonstrating a seamless blend of fantasy and nature. The dragon's scales are crafted from vivid, petal-like formations, with hues ranging from bold reds to soft pinks, highlighting the dynamic nature of the creature. Surrounding the dragon, an explosion of colorful blooms—roses, dahlias, and other florals—creates a lively, textured backdrop that enhances its mythical presence. The swirling arrangement of the flowers, painted in a spectrum of vibrant greens, blues, and yellows, captures a sense of movement and vitality, while the intricate detailing invites viewers to explore every layer of the composition. This artwork is a celebration of imagination, transforming traditional dragon imagery with a botanical twist, evoking a sense of wonder and enchantment. Contemporary artist, Augustina Droze, uses animals as symbols to describe her personal lived experiences. Her current body of work explores her life as a foreigner, her gaze upon the world as exotic, beautiful and bewildering. As an expat living in Beijing for the past ten years and currently in Barcelona, Droze’s work incorporates elements of East and West. Her swirling, dream-like paintings are colourful and confrontational, brimming with Rococo inspired abundance. She creates her own modern mythology, a storybook land where she is the other in a very other worldly landscape. Droze has exhibited in galleries and museums internationally in numerous shows, notably the Castellani Art Museum, Niagara Falls, New York (2014), Banaras Hindu University as Fulbright Senior Scholar, Varanasi, India (2017), the Beijing US Embassy as Distinguished Art Envoy (2022), London Biennale (2023), Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum (2024) and Carrousel du Louvre (2025).
