On View Now: In The Flowers
at Autumn Lights 2026
In The Flowers is a series of experimental biomaterial sculptures incorporating traces of our garden.
Over four years, large sheets of bacterial cellulose were placed in the garden and exposed to the elements to create a record of our local ecology.
Wind, rain, insects, leaves, humans, grass, trucks - even our famous blonde raccoons - all left visible traces, embedding time and landscape into the work.
