Siobhan Healy
In this site specific sculpture, Scottish artist Siobhan Healy has created a subtle and thought provoking artwork that is inspired by the rare British wild flower - the Ghost Orchid (Epipogium aphyllum). The Orchid is depicted in transient and ethereal clear glass. The intention is to encourage the viewer to reflect on the potential loss of this fragile species. Healy is an artist who specialises in glass work relating to rare species of wild plants. The idea of preserving and documenting plants permeates her work.
