Jiacong “jay” Yan‘s Whisper, a bed of freshly cut Cala Lilies gives us the chance to get an idea of what it would be like to hear what flowers have to say.
When visitors come very close to one of the floweres, they can hera then whisper erotic sexual phrases one would hear while being intimate with a loved one. These phrases were written and chosen because the natural function of a flower is attraction, especially towards bees in order to spread it’s genetic code.
