Throughout history, flowers have been a favorite subject of artists. Eliana Santin asks mail artists to take a holistic approach. The Cambridge Dictionary defines holistic as "dealing with or treating the whole of something or someone and not just a part". The title of Elianas call is Blumen, the German word for flowers.
