A tranquil, calming aura floats through "Whisper," with neutral, hushed tones of creams, grays and blues. Stronger earth tones, such as brown and charcoal, provide a base, and a hint of dusty coral and shimmery copper add punch. Texture is crucial, and collected objects take center stage. Clutter is banished, reflecting our yearning for simplicity in a world of overabundance. Flowers are stylized, not arranged: floated in vessels, placed monobotanically or formed into orbs, for example. Unusual forms with interesting textures are standouts. The setting is modern but not sterile. "Whisper" invites us to settle in and let tranquility and texture envelop our senses.
