Cecilie Bahnsen, Fall Winter 2025 "Untitled Flowers"

“A flower holds perfection for just a moment before it fades, transforms, and becomes something else. That fleeting beauty, the delicacy before it disappears, is what fascinates me. A show is the same – 10 minutes where everything comes together before it shifts again. This show is dedicated to that moment, to the quiet poetry of change. The process when everything begins to come together before a show is my favorite part. It’s never perfect, and that’s what makes it beautiful. You can’t completely control it. There’s always a clash, a contrast, a moment of unexpected refinement. It’s about trusting instinct, letting things evolve, and allowing imperfections to become part of the final expression.” - Cecilie Bahnsen A flower in full bloom, its fleeting perfection, and the inevitable shift toward decay – the Cecilie Bahnsen Fall Winter 2025 show reflects on the beauty of impermanence, underscoring the gaze of now, the fleeting moment where everything comes together before shifting once more. Long a signature in Bahnsen’s universe, florals take on new depth this season, woven between the delicate and the defiant, the refined and the raw. The show reinterprets flowers not only as symbols of beauty but as markers of time: banal yet profound, fragile yet resilient. Inspired by Tal R’s series Untitled Flowers from his 2021 Ordrupgaard exhibition, one of these artworks becomes the show’s backdrop - printed on posters, layered, imperfect, in constant flux, much like time itself.
