"Flores de Manjerico," Basil Flowers, has as its conceptual principle the hanging gardens and traditional sale kiosk at the time of the S. João traditional fest.
Thus, FAHR 021.3 proposes a piece that maintains a blanket of basil that rises in the public space and engages the viewer in an emotional and sensory way. Two raised corners absorb, involving us circa green lines and spots generated by manjericos, assuming something attractive and provocative in the context of the street.
