Hana-Bi 4
By Frédéric Choisel
Located in Burlingame, CA
The Hana-bi 4 — A luminous oil on linen painting inspired by Japanese Fireworks The word hanabi in Japanese translates to "fire flowers," with hana meaning flower and bi meaning fire. It is most commonly used for fireworks, which the Japanese often describe as beautiful blooming bursts in the sky.
The composition becomes more than a floral painting - it is a meditation on the emotional resonance of color, where flowers themselves become like fire: alive, radiant, and fleeting. The metaphor of "beautiful fire flowers" perfectly captures both the intensity and delicacy of the subject, reminding us how a blossom can carry an emotional spark. The artist said, "It is metaphorically a work on emotional connection to color, w/ith the flower as the subject".. Dimensions are 50 x 50 inches.
