For Ragg, working with flowers should be fun, inventive and exciting, while the final product should primarily provoke reactions. According to him, contemporary design is not about forcing materials into a concept, the design should especially accentuate the personality of the flowers. In practice, his philosophy leads to very diverse creations, from playful ready-mades to extremely subtle compositions. David Ragg was previously co-author of Stichting Kunstboek’s successful book One Colour Bouquets, and in this first monograph he proves the surprising versatility of his creative talent.
