Botanic Gardens, The Waders

"The Waders" is a piece of art created by Jenny Goodwin, located in a pond in the Royal Botanic Gardens. It is part of the Ikebana for Gardens Exhibition, which features artwork placed throughout the Gardens, each designed specifically for the location. They were created by teachers of the modern Sogetsu School of Ikebana, the ancient Japanese art form.

    Ikebana is for me a flower art, but I get why those pieces can been shown as an vegetal ornement.

      Tsuki, I noticed that a lot of the artworks were made from flowers or plants, but strangely this one didn't seem to be.
