SYMPHONY OF THE WILD with The Community Brain at the RHS Hampton Court Flower Show 2022
Titled ‘Symphony of the Wild’, the display, is a visual and audio feast inspired by the natural sights and sounds of the Tolworth Court Farm Fields nature reserve. It uses native meadow plants combined with a music soundscape and old repurposed musical instruments to celebrate the role nature, wildlife and wilderness play in our health, wellbeing and stimulating creativity.
Georgia Neesham, The Community Brain’s project manager for greening, who is co-ordinating the display, said: “We’re thrilled to be back at the Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival for a fourth time with a playful and immersive design for our feature community garden. Symphony of the Wild is the result of a huge community collaboration involving our four fantastic composers, Jon, Samuel, Marian and Year Five at OLI; a team of artists and makers at 121 Collective, who designed and built the instruments; and, of course, our green-fingered volunteers who have helped to cultivate and prepare the plants to enable us to bring a little bit of Tolworth Court Farm Fields and new music to Hampton Court Palace.”
