LILA LAND
“The ‘Lila Land’ series is the result of common imagination and inspiration between the art label Posterità (led by Pako Golec), the photographer Renaud Morin, and the floral designer Lila Noir. Together, they spent a day in the intimate and wild domain of Maïlys Prunières in the Cévennes, France, where she cultivates her own flowers and works on her floral projects, recognizable by their deconstructed organic volumes and precise graphic accents. The result is a free and poetic photo editorial, without a clear guideline, except to create around flowers and the environment that naturally surround them in this raw setting. The human element fades away to give full space to the subject: the play of a contemporary floral portrait.”
