blooming beards

Here’s a little something for fans of beards, fans of flowers, and fans of finding random things in the street. Geoffroy Mottart, a Brussels-based florist and installation artist, has been flower-bombing busts of historical folk around his town, furnishing their chins and the tops of their heads with artfully arranged flora, which (rather devastatingly) tends to get removed by the powers that be within a day or two. It’s ironic, actually, since Geoffroy’s whole objective has been to entice passersby to stop and study these otherwise forgotten statues. Good thing then, that he’s been taking plenty of snaps of the project, entitled Fleurissements, along the way. Should you care to see more of his work, and keep up with all his latest beardy exploits, pop over to his Instagram.
