Flowers for your Jubilee:
THE ARCHIVE OF BLOSSOMS
On the occasion of the anniversary years of the MAK Vienna in 2024 and of Swarovski in 2025, mischer'traxler studio is realizing the intervention Archive of Blossoms — an installation that takes up historical, floral motifs from the collection of the MAK – Museum of Applied Arts and symbolically congratulates with flowers.
The MAK Collection includes numerous floral designs that are represented on fabrics, graphics, intarsia, and as three-dimensional ornaments from different styles and eras. For Archive of Flowers, selected motifs from the MAK Collection were digitally reworked and implemented in three dimensions. The designs, which were originally often conceived as flat decorations or prints, are now being converted into hand-folded paper flowers. Complemented by stems and leaves, oversized flowers are created, each of which refers to a specific era or style. Crystalline details give the paper flowers a special shine and combine the traditional patterns with modern design elements.
The installation creates an exciting dialogue between past and present by interpreting historical floral prints from the collection in a new, monumental setting—a tribute to the timeless beauty and cross-epochal inspirational power of flowers.
