La Orotava, Tenerife - Corpus Christi

In collaboration with: Flower Carpet

On July 2019 we were invited by Asociación ArteArena from Orotava, located in the island of Tenerife to partecipate from their yearly celebration of the Corpus Christi.  This group of artists build every year a monumental ephemeral art carpet made with the natural coloured sands of the Teide Natural Park. And we had the honour of being invited to decorate both sides of their carpet with 2 flower carpets  made with dried reed and full fresh flowers . 

We were lucky enough to witness how they create their hyper-realistic creations, most of which is realised with the free-hand technique. Besides, we could experience how this city celebrates this centennial tradition, whiwh took our breath away.
