Dear caregivers… this art piece is for you. It is to remind you that
you are beautiful and you are loved.
As an artist, Larocque is sensitive to the emotions of others. She
sympathizes with the distress of both the person who manifests
symptoms of brain diseases, and those who experience them—the
caregiver and the family members.
The black and white photos represent all of our memories, which can
be shadowed by life's circumstances. We need to remember that in
time even the most barren soil can be renewed and bloom again. Flowers are universally loved.
Their simple presence can beautify any room, and cheer any person—their blossoms cover over
memories and give us hope. The sweet little Forget-Me-Not blooms are to remember those we
love, even if they're still with us right now. We need to create vivid memories that will last!
Chantal Larocque is a paper flower artist and her floral designs have garnered international
attention—you can find her blooms in Madison Avenue storefronts, on fashion designer
clothing lines, in wedding magazines and at soirees hosted by celebrities such as Lauren
Conrad and Ali Larter.
