Flowers are a metaphorical subject matter used to address issues and emotions associated with the topic of beauty and feminism. A bloom heralds a time of transformation and rebirth. Symbolizing change, beauty, fragility, transformation and the soul, "Bloom" is transformation personified. Just as the human cycle of reproduction-birth-infancy-childhood-adolescence-old age-death, each stage of the flower's life is different, each serving a separate purpose in reaching its full bloom.
