Description

Flowers -Flora in Contemporary Art & Culture- is an exhibition, compromising of over 500 unique artworks and objects, exploring the ongoing influence of flowers on creativity and human expression.

Chieska Fortune Smith is the daughter of an African-American soul singer and a Japanese dancer. All her work is deeply rooted in her unique heritage and much of it inspired by old photographs of her parents early life and courtship and well as vintage, found imagery from the 20th century.

Emma Witter is an artist working intuitively with found and rescued biomass – by-products of London’s restaurant industry or salvaged mud larking on the banks of the river Thames – her sculptures are sensational and beguiling. Witter breathes new life into lost things, and shows us value where we saw only waste.
