Rebecca Law’s 10,000 irises Pop Up the Taste of Spring in The Iris Exhibition.

A vibrant color of blue, yellow and white iris flower is inhabited in Now gallery started on Thursday, March 2 until Sunday, May 7 which located in Greenwich Peninsula for spring by Rebecca Louise Law. This ‘The Iris ‘ Exhibition pops up the taste of spring as iris flower is a cultivated springtime flower. The British artist is a flora which currently works internationally, generally in German, and is known as an artist who uses the organic material in a sculptural and painterly art as reported by NOW Gallery that she likes to cherish the natural beauty of nature by preserving, treasuring, sharing and capturing them. 10,000 iris flowers will be installed by copper wire and floated inside the gallery.

The undulating appearance of The Iris can be seen as people approach the gallery. Reported by Design boom, besides presenting simple colors of iris flowers, the 1,000 iris flowers will reveal Law’s research of ephemerality of a flower by showing evidence that the flowers are always changing as they dry out and changed and contort. This allows viewers to engage with the beautiful changes made by nature. The artwork which now sits in Now gallery took Law to walk along the banks of the Peninsula then plucked marsh reed to take them into her studio. As she discovered that the land where Now gallery placed on was once a wetland of tidal marshes, which was known as ‘Bugsby’s’ and ‘Greenwich’ marsh, has inspired her to present the Greenwich Peninsula Ecology—the Iris flower. The Iris shows a continuation of her presentation of preservation and the use of flowers as a respected earth material.

Furthermore, via London news online, a gallery curator, Jemima Burrill says Now gallery is pleased and welcomes Law and her extraordinary tribute to nature and its demise—in this case, iris flower. Her art will allow people to see in the gallery from the bloomy flowers into dying flowers poetically.
