These works celebrate the everlasting iconic power of the
flower. Rendered here in inflatable form, Colbert creates a series of
highly stylised flowers, exploring a universe of Aesthetics within the
subject, while simultaneously drawing on other art historical references
such as Claes Oldenburg’s soft sculptures. Colbert's appropriation of
Warhol's flowers speaks to his larger interest in cohering canonical art
and digital spheres – a fascination that persists throughout his
practice.

"For me, flowers are the ultimate symbols of beauty that is fleeting.
I love how they have a universal poetic quality. They represent the
sculptural essence of life, capturing the transient nature of beauty and
how it can defy everything forever in a single moment."
