As part of the limited edition of the Heroine collection, Rückl presents two pink hand-cut vases – Roses and Thorns. Both are decorated with hand-cut cuts that symbolically represent the two inseparable sides of the imaginary coin of love. On one side, a tender, warm feeling that inspires hope and strength. On the other, a burning desire that does not let up. One cannot exist without the other.
When I think about romantic love and all its forms, about the ambivalent feeling that brings joy and tears, she remembers above all the unconditional love, as I remembers it from childhood, and the complexity of relationships masterfully captured by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in The Little Prince. He tells about a rose that teaches him love. The story of the little prince is an immortal allegory about the fact that to desire often means to suffer a little at the same time.
