Extracted from an imaginary garden, a single oversized deviant rose intimidates and fascinates the gaze. In full bloom she migrates from the flat surface onto a performing body. The anthropomorphic rose appears on stage, alive and grieving an recent loss of her dear friend, who appears in the form of a moon. She surrenders to gentle and slow decay.
