Celebrating our venture into the world of floral art
‘Through the Looking Glass’ was our very first large scale floral art installation, celebrating the way flowers can transform any space into a haven of beauty. It was displayed at the world-renowned Saatchi Gallery just this past weekend over Mother's Day, forming part of the exhibition Flowers - Flora in Contemporary Art & Culture. We couldn’t be more excited to be part of such a fantastic creative partnership.
Creating striking tablescapes and structures throughout the room, we wanted to show how flowers can infuse even the most industrial spaces with life, colour and joy. Using architectural stems with minimal foliage - such as anthurium, orchids, hydrangea and magnolia branches - we created a clear and simple piece of art in a colour palette of vibrant pink, purple and green hues that contrast perfectly with Sophie Mess’ Journey Of Progress mural painted behind the installation across the Gallery’s stairway.
We couldn’t be more thrilled with our floral piece of art. While our installation using fresh stems is now gone, the Flowers exhibition at Saatchi Gallery will be running until early May.
Admission: Tickets to the Flowers exhibition can be booked here.
Location: Saatchi Gallery, Duke of York’s HQ, London SW3 4RY
