[Jacqueline has made some large vases to hold branches and large dried plants. All her life she loved to make bouquets, to install dry plants and branches in their sculptures. She did not hesitate to transport large floral ensembles to Paris on the train for the pieces presented at the gallery of "La Demeure" or to cross the city of Bourges to animate the public spaces of the city's Maison de la Culture. For her, the important thing was the harmony between the supporting sculpture and the plants presented, a set of Nature]. F.L.
