About

Waken your senses and explore this fantasy landscape! Floating Flowers appears like a forest of thin white flowers, from different heights and shapes, shining, singing and waving following the wind flow. Each flower is made of a folded white steel sheet and threaded rod, with little bells hung on it. It explores the boundaries between an artificial object and the natural context.

Floating Flowers is designed by Hugo Bertrand and Noël Picaper from Paris, France. Presented by StorefrontMB and The Forks, Cool Gardens is a public exhibition of contemporary garden and art installations that celebrate the interface between nature, art, architecture, urbanism and design.
