Greenhouse of Other Worlds,EDEN PROJECT

Written by david kemp. Posted in The Blog

The”Greenhouse of Other Worlds” was installed at the EDEN PROJECT  nearly ten years ago.

I was invited over to Bodelva,yesterday, as part of their ten years celebrations,to tidy up & restore the Greenhouse & some of my other exhibits.

Ten years exposure to the Suns Rays has bleached & blasted,even the best possible of other worlds was scorched & shrivelled.

After a thorough Spring clean, these sad old  globes were removed & replaced with some bright new worlds.

The Greenhouse is part of a larger installation”INDUSTRIAL FLAME PLANTS” which is sited in  the Outdoor “Plants as Fuel” section at Eden.
