Nature Art

On the weekend I was lucky enough to be at the Melbourne Uni Burnley Campus to attend the Therapeutic Horticulture Australia 2022 conference. I will be talking more about that in episode 2 of my podcast, The Flowerpot Pen, but I wanted to share some pictures of some nature art I stumbled across in the gardens.

The pieces all appeared to be made from materials sourced from the gardens themselves and were a beautiful touch of whimsy.

A fortress?

It was school holidays at the time so they may have been made by a group of children, or they may not have. They were magical nonetheless and an inspiring example of what can be created with imagination.

These pictures are just a few, there are more in a post on my FB page, Frances Bryant Gardens: The Flowerpot Pen, if you care to take a look.

They have inspired me to create some ‘art’ at the Terang Community Park and Wetlands project, so watch this space!

If you want to hear more about the Therapeutic Horticulture conference 2022, go to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Anchor, or Acast to subscribe to my podcast, The Flowerpot Pen, so you don’t miss it.

Til next time!
