TOM DE HOUWER: NATURE’S BOUNTY
Nature's Bounty, Saatchi Gallery’s entry for last year’s Chelsea in Bloom competition. The theme for 2024 was Floral Feasts.
Located on the ground floor in Gallery 3, an enchanting 8-metre floating table adorned with forest leaves, set the scene for a floral feast. Suspended above, seasonal flowers ascended towards the ceiling where they intertwined with cascading autumn leaves, symbolising the essence of life’s cycles. Crafted consciously by Tom de Houwer using locally grown, fresh-cut flowers from Marlston Farmgirl, this installation beckoned viewers to reflect on our bond with nature and our shared responsibility to nurture it.
Used flowers were repurposed by The Confetti Club into biodegradable fresh petal confetti.
This exhibition was designed by Tom de Houwer and produced by HERB Flower Studio.
