The red paint used in the image resembles blood, which has connotations of death. Flowers are a good example of transience as they bloom for only a short period of time before wilting and effectively losing their beauty.
The image above suggests the death of the flowers, all after all are coated in red paint and are no longer upright.. they appear weak.

Example of a Tarrats inspired piece
This piece is inspired by Marc Quinn, Andy Goldsworthy and Carlos Tarrats. The red paint on the leaves represents blood which links to Goldsworthy's focus on death. A white rose has been used, linking into Marc Quinn's work on orchids.
