Dandelions: Rustic Oracles, my archive intervention at the Harris Museum and Art Gallery in Preston starts today!
I have placed objects from my Dandelion Archive within the museum collection. They infiltrate nearly every department in the building, cropping up in sixteen different locations. Just like weeds.
I have also selected objects and books from the museum collection and displayed these too.
We are having a launch TODAY from 2 - 4pm
Refreshments provided (dandelion and burdock drink, dandelion tea, and normal tea too)
Free!
All welcome
The exhibition runs until 7 October 2018

For the past few months I have been putting an exhibition together about dandelions.
I was invited by the Harris Museum, Art Gallery & Library to look in their collection to see if I could find any representation of dandelions. I visited the museum archive a number of times and looked through paintings, prints, ceramics, books, and clothing and found a number of dandelions. How exciting!
I've been so busy recently I haven't had time to update the blog, but will in the next few weeks put details up of the items I found in the collection.
Alongside these items I have chosen objects from my Dandelion Archive to go on show too in the exhibition.
