Wisteria Lane
Client:
Heart of Auckland City
Year:
2021
Inspired by Wisteria, which is best defined as a breathtaking but aggressive vine that is likely to steal the beauty. An enchanted vine of fluorescent flowers will transform a central city lane as mesmerising cascades of luscious purple-violet flowers bring the natural world front and centre into the urban environment.
The process of making Wisteria Lane mimics the lifecycle of flowers and plants. Over 10,000 plastic bottles, that may otherwise be cast out into the environment, has contributed to the growth of a new generation of life forms. The delicate matrix of luminescence, manipulated plastic and electricity reinforce the flexibility, power, and preciousness of our own ecology.
