Harriet Parry | Garlands in the Municipal Souk
As a metaphor for the connections that bind nature and human communities together, floral artist Harriet Parry invites citizens to an afternoon to learn how to create handcrafted garlands of flowers to decorate this iconic city space. “These garlands and the process of creation itself,” in Parry’s words, “symbolise the unheard connections and conversations between trees, and act as a metaphor for the systems that create thriving communities to flourish”.
An afternoon of confidences and craftsmanship with the English artist is completed with an abstract landscape of floral and human sounds: the musical ambience created by Harriet Parry’s collaborator, composer and sound artist Charlie Carroll.
