Inside this Year's Painting
Rockford Tower in Bloom is a piece that invokes the nostalgia many feel when admiring this longstanding Wilmington landmark. The Rockford Tower has long served as an anchor of memory for the community, especially as it awakens from winter and welcomes back the crowds who gather for traditions beneath its watch.
This piece bathes the Tower in sunlight and frames it in fresh blooms—a treasure waiting to unlock the joys of spring. It is the prize after a long journey, the idol at the end of a quest. By encasing the Tower within a softened, fantastical realm, we revisit how many experienced the Tower and the Wilmington Flower Market as a child: full of wonder.
The Wilmington Flower Market has always been centered on the joy of Delaware’s children, and this work was created with them in mind. Not only today’s children, but those of the past and those yet to come. Rockford Tower in Bloom returns to the childlike wonder of the Tower and all it offers, inviting us to briefly step back into the more vibrant world of our memories.
