BRITISH FLOWERS WEEK 2026
GARDEN MUSEUM, LONDON
Drawing from the artistic legacy of Benton End, the theme of this year’s show, the work reflects on how botanical form and colour shape the creative vision of both artists and gardeners, capturing the blended shades of an artist's board through the medium of seasonal British flora.
The installation is composed of a series of corten steel bowls of varying diameters and heights. Each bowl functions as an individual colour study, focusing on a specific hue while blending its different shades.
The design offers a multi-dimensional viewing experience, intimate and detailed from the nave, yet transforming into a striking graphic composition from the museum’s stairs and upper galleries, where the circular vessels coalesce into the unmistakable arrangement of a paint-splattered palette.
