John Newling
We particularly wanted to work with an artist who could reflect on Nymans creative history, bringing a strong visual presence to the garden during early spring. John Newling has done exactly that and created an interactive and thoughtful installation for the enjoyment of our visitors.
The artwork will see visitors follow an ‘alphabet trail’ of twenty six sites taking them on a journey around the garden, exploring the language of its plant species and discovering the origin of each letter. It will be at one and the same time an alphabet, a font, and a physical reminder of the wonder of plants.
John hopes that visitors will feel both a connection to the history of the garden and the living set of shapes within it.
