‘This work is a 'portrait' of Zaha Hadid. In its way it's 'her' to me. When she and I were staying in Thailand I started drawing and painting what became my series Night Orchids. Later when we went on a few trips to Miami, and I continued them there, there was one about which Zaha remarked “What is that? The plan of a building?” and I said “No, it's a portrait of you.” And then she used to always say, “I'm an orchid – Brian says I'm an orchid.” And this found its way into the ‘Flowers for Zaha’ stained glass screen, which I was working on when she died, and became a tribute to her. We were both fond of Charles Jencks and Maggie Keswick [founders of Maggie’s] and deeply respected what they did with the Maggie's Centres, so being asked to donate a work, and being able to give this one - especially in light of Zaha's connection as a Maggie's architect and supporter - is a privilege.'
'All the drawings and paintings that I do in some degree reflect my interest in stained glass as an architectural medium, and very often these works, including this one, I imagine as architectural experiences on an enormous scale: huge walls of stained glass flickering with liquid colour, a sort of harnessed euphoria; a line of lead in glass or a sculptural form, free-standing, in front of a building.’- Brian Clarke, 2020
