Christophe Guinet is an urban gardener and new father from Marseille, France.
The artist, who goes by Monsieur Plant, has shown his work all over the world, and created installations for brands big and small.
As his wife, Yeva, reached the end of her pregnancy, the couple decided to capture the anticipation of those final weeks in a unique way: Christophe turned Yeva into a work of art using hundreds of flowers.

"The selection of landscapes found in the series such as the forest, the mountains or the sea are elements that form part of my surroundings," the artist's statement continues.
