Buying flowers at the bodega is one of New York City's unsung small luxuries, and it has even more significance now, when we're all so focused on making sure we have basic necessities. With this ongoing series of cheap bodega-bought flowers that I styled with plastic bags, I wanted to create something beyond the bouquets' literal circumstances. I think of them as a humble symbol of hope. —Jessica Antola
