Thousands Of Flowers Planted In Abandoned Mental Asylum

Artist Anna Schuleit created this beautiful and haunting series, entitled BLOOM. Schuleit took 28,000 potted plants and distributed them between four floors of an abandoned psychiatric hospital. The thesis addresses a lack of flowers present in such facilities and certainly reveals the natural beauty under dark circumstances. posted on February 16, 2012 at 10:45am EST
