“Pentecost” derives from the Greek word “pentekostes’, meaning “the fiftieth”. The Christian world celebrates the arrival of the Holy Spirit and the foundation of the Church on the fiftieth day after Easter on Sunday. We might have forgotten many of the old folk traditions linked to this feast but it is essential to remember that everything awakens at Pentecost and life is at its fullest, most vivid swing. Our forefathers knew it very well that when it happens we need to stop for a minute. Before the big summer works we need to greet and salute the budding, new life.

We have less and less traditions nowadays but we all feel that we need celebrations, we need silence every now and again, we need to play and we need company. These feasts carry the message of the love of Man and Nature to what we can hold on to, and by which we can step further.

The more than 20 artists of Sterling Gallery, the most famous Hungarian jewel-designers, Peter Vladimir, professor of the University of Applied Art and his ex-students, Fanni Király, Orsolya Kecskés, Krisztina Stomfai, Gyöngyvér Gaál, Krisztián Ádám, Noémi Gera, Fanni Vékony – only to mention a few – this time were all inspired by the festivity of flowers.
