ONIRIA – Cannactiva’s Fall Greeting 2024

As every autumn, we like to welcome the new season with a special greeting, illustrated by Àfrica Fanlo, a new exclusive flower and a new gift: Cannactiva’s hemp infusions. This time we have been inspired by the world of dreams to launch ONIRIA (Amnesia CBD), Cannactiva’s new special edition flower that we are sure you will love.

Cannactiva’s Autumn 2024 Greeting

This autumn’s beautiful postcard is illustrated with bright colors typical of the season, painted by two snakes. Snakes, capable of shedding their skin, symbolize renewal and personal growth. They represent the act of letting go of the old to make way for the new, inviting us to transform ourselves and embrace the opportunities of this new season.

This is the text of the postcard:

If you don’t know the answer, stop asking.

The accurate arrow, before being shot, waits still and silent. Thus it better perceives the whisper that tells it where it should go.

Letting go and letting go is the best way to receive.

The emptier the glass is, the more space there is to fill.

Like that seeker who longed for peace, after traveling a thousand paths without ceasing, he fell exhausted and had to rest. And it was there that, without further ado, he found tranquility.

Close your eyes to see. Forget to remember. Sleep to wake up.

Surrender to the power of Oniria, and she will grant you her immensity.

Meet Africa Fanlo, the illustrator of the postcard

This season, in Cannactiva we are inspired by the world of dreams with Africa Fanlo, our guest artist. With a consolidated career in children’s illustration, Africa has developed her own voice full of symbolism and color, a unique style that evolves towards more personal and dreamlike themes. The illustration is starred by snakes, as an ancient symbol of transformation. By changing its skin, the snake represents the change of season: autumn invites us to let go of what we no longer need and prepare the ground for the new.

Africa Fanlo has a degree in Fine Arts in Barcelona, she began her career in children’s illustration more than two decades ago. Since her first steps in the publishing world in 2003, her work has been published in more than 50 children’s books, working with renowned publishers both in Spain and abroad. Her sensitive and detailed approach connects with people in a unique way, capturing their imagination with magical characters and lively landscapes.

Her work has been recognized on numerous occasions, winning awards such as the Junceda in 2004 and recognition from the Ministry of Culture in 2015. In recent years, Africa has begun to delve deeper into her personal work to explore more personal and abstract themes. Inspired by the world of dreams, her recent work is infused with elements that allude to the subconscious and transformation. Illustrations that invite viewers to explore their own emotions and let themselves be carried away by the unknown.
