I often think if it grows together it goes together when selecting colours. But the array of colour found within wildflowers exceed any palette I could create.
This print attempts to bring the colour and data to life.
Each blade of grass represents one 10km square of the UK arranged by grid reference. So the Shetland isles can be found at the top right and Scilly isles bottom left.
Based on the now sold out risograph print, this piece comes with a few tweaks. Instead of the denominator being based on landmass, it's now based on three of the UK's most common grasses and plants; Yorkshire Fog, Nettles and Common Grass.
This means there's a chance that flowers could grow on each of the blades of grass represented here.
I've also introduced a new flower in addition to the numbers of poppies, cornflowers and corn marigolds.
The ox eye daisy.
The presence of a flower within the print represents the presence of that flower within that 10km square and the height illustrates how prevalent they are. So the taller the flower, the more abundant they grow.
As well as using special fluorescent inks, this edition introduces a holographic gold roof for the cabin, which catches the light just as the flowers catch the sun.
