I really like how she broke this all down. I always wondered why such a beautiful art style never flourished longer . Being replaced by brutalism, stale lifeless and factory line art styles .
Every time I would get excited to see a little resurgence of this style over the decades. It would quickly come and go and be replaced by louder colours and more 'modern' lines .
I suspect alot has to do with the fact it's focus is more on feminine natural arts . That it didn't gain a foothold in the institutions that taught how art "should be" expressed through more mechanical designs .
It seems to be a difference of views from a feminine/creative right brain expressions, verses the masculine/ left brain creative expressions.
Whomever controls the artists at the time has an advantage over the cultural influences .
In a way it seems to be a bit of a battle of creative dominance .
As the arts are extremely influencial of a society as a whole.
