TAKE A SEAT IN THE MEADOW
Sit beneath the graceful branches of a striking willow tree and enjoy a unique dining experience. The scene is set for four friends enjoying the peaceful setting of the Yorkshire moors. Gentle aromas of fresh flowers fill the air, tactile wood invites touch and glassware sparkles in the light. Adorned with a centrepiece of meadow-style flowers, every element on the table is chosen to offer a delightful and immersive experience. The aim is to emphasise the importance of protecting our wildflower meadows and the wildlife that lives within them, and to experience the magic of the landscape.
THROUGH THE MAGNIFYING GLASS
This exhibit draws inspiration from the vibrant hues of a summer carnival, serving as a vivid celebration of colour while paying tribute to the vital role of the humble bumblebee. The palette is bright and bold, in shades of orange, yellow, blue, purple and cerise. All flowers and foliage are held in test tubes and containers, with a bowl of water at the base to ensure they stay fresh throughout the week. By incorporating a variety of textures and contrasting flower shapes, the piece seeks to address the pressing issue of the declining bee population in the UK, raising awareness of their indispensable contribution to sustaining the flower industry and inspiring action toward their preservation.
