Jubilee structure to be made from discarded plants and materials
A structure to celebrate the Royal Jubilee is going to be created by the sculptor, Caro Sweet who has also recently been asked to be the first residential sculptor of the RHS Spring Gardening Show. The inspiration for the sculpture is going to come from discarded materials and plants and it is going to be created over four days at the event.
Caro is an artist who is as well known for her art as she is for her performance while creating it. Those who visit the show are going to be up to see her creative sculpture and this is bound to be an entertaining process as she has been known to sculpt while wearing high heels.
Commenting on her Spring Show project, Caro said: “Malvern’s Spring Show is the only remaining RHS Show outside London prior to the Jubilee. The sixty-year reign of Her Majesty has seen her grow in strength and move with the times in the same way a tree or plant has to grow.
I’ve long admired the Queen’s more considered approach to life than some Royals and felt that incorporating recycled materials rather than using expensive new ones would be a more fitting tribute.”
Visitors to the Malvern Spring Gardening Show, which is open daily from 9am to 6pm, wanting to see Caro in action will find her in The Show Gardens Arena. For more information on the Spring Show, visit www.threecounties.co.uk/springgardening or call the Information Hotline on 01684 584924
