10,000 fragrant and velvety red roses are packed onto the gallery floor, where over the summer months they are left to blacken and die.

This sensual bed of rose heads atop green leaves and thorny stems suggests extravagance and romance; yet, over time, may become cliché, obsessive, and even dangerous.
