Flower Idea Development
After completing artist research my favourite idea is to recreate sculptures of Andy Goldsworthy's around Hulme, using the lines of flowers as a metaphor for a 'timeline of regrowth'. The problem I have to overcome with this idea is where I am going to get the flowers from. In an ideal world there would be somewhere where I could pick them whenever I liked, however I can't think of anywhere nearby. I could buy them for quite cheap from Asda but I don't know how long they would last if I needed them for reshoots. I would also have to buy a lot so it could get quite expensive. Another idea I have had is to buy fake petals off the internet. You can buy a thousand petals for about £5 which could be a possibility, however the weather would have to be perfect for this to work or they would just blow away. My last idea is to use fruit instead of flowers. Fruit would last longer, they are more accessible to me and they also bare the same connotations of regrowth that flowers do. However, I don't think this would look as effective. Random fruit placed in Hulme wouldn't look as natural as flowers.
