T
he Sant Francesc Flower Market celebrates its fifth year with a special pop up event featuring a collaboration between the artist Sara Regal and floral designer Chicosé Cubero of Sr. Feroz. The exhibition takes place in the patio of the Sant Francesc Hotel, in Palma, between March 21-23, 2024, timed to coincide not only with the first days of spring, but with the events of Art Palma Brunch on Saturday,March 23.
Since 2019, the Sant Francesc hotel has welcomed this spring pop-up flower market, offering an opportunity for local florists to present their work in a unique setting and connect with a new community of people. “Five years of history deserve a celebration to match. To do this, we have designed a market that reinvents itself in a more artistic and original edition than ever,” said Miguel Feliz, general director of Sant Francesc Hotel.
Sara Regal, an up & coming designer who recently presented work at the Madrid Design Festival and with LOOP Disseny I Cicularitat, has an eye towards circularity, often working with sustainable and discarded materials. For the St. Francesc Flower Market she will present five totem-like vases that will each be completed with a sculptural floral piece by Sr. Feroz. The installation is meant to pay tribute to the origins of the flower market, which in years past has featured floral designers including Bloss You, Tinons Floral Designer and La Rosaleda Mallorca.
