Just in time for the start of spring, the Trends & Identity major examines flowers as an everyday cultural phenomenon. The three events focus on different practices and codes and discuss various forms and current challenges between consumption and sustainability, from bouquets to grave decorations. Contemporary floral aesthetics in art, crafts and design will be examined and, last but not least, the question of how flowers speak to us will be posed.
