Drawing inspiration from the Wakehurst landscape, local artist
Ali McNab, will recreate the wonders of the Wild Wood. Set
in the peaceful environment of the Wakehurst Chapel this stunning
exhibition will help to explain the importance of conserving
our natural heritage. A series of organic sculptures will
emphasise the mysteries of our native woodlands, including
an ever-watchful ‘Green Man’. Over time the exhibition
will transform from spring to summer – just as nature
intended.
Her inspiration came from exploring the wilder and more mysterious
areas of the 500-acre Wakehurst Place estate. The natural
materials used in the exhibition were carefully selected during
winter coppicing in nearby Pearcelands Wood.
