Platform Gallery 2009 exhibitions
Botanic Gardens
June 27 - August 27 2009
This beautiful summer exhibition will feature work by makers from across the UK who explore plant forms and structures in their work. The exhibition will include works in metal, glass, ceramics and mixed media, as well as smaller scale works in jewellery. Botanic Gardens will offer a range of contemporary approaches to this subject area, which has offered an endless source of inspiration to artists. From makers who minutely explore the intimate forms and structures of native and tropical flora to those who take broader inspiration from the botanical world, the results will not fail to fascinate and delight the viewer.
