PLANTSCAPES

Visitors to Kew Royal Botanic Garden move around and inside the Plantscapes sculptures to meet plants up-close. Six landscape-scaled installations, created in collaboration with Kew horticulturalists, invite people to understand the threats of climate change to UK plant ecosystems and how they can help to care for these plant communities. Featured locations include sand dunes, hedgerow, moorland, woodland, meadow and green roof village. The green roof village is designed as a children’s play area.
Plantscapes was commissioned by Kew as part of the exhibition the Secret World of Plants in 2021. All of the elements were designed to be re-purposed for community use. Thanks to Setworks for the design/build work.
