Discussing with curator Antonia Harrison my new installation for exhibition 'Arts and Crafts House, Then and Now' at Compton Verney. The exhibition traces the origins, legacy and enduring appeal of the historic Arts & Crafts Movement and its fascination with the creation of the home and link to the garden. The commission will consist of a new living wall tableau including William Morris botanical designs, new glass and ceramic pieces and a new collection of painted plants. This is my 1st visit to the wonderful grounds and gallery at Compton Verney. Their permanent collections include a great collection of British folk art and magnificent trees which grace the surrounding landscape designed by Capability Brown.
