Description
By: Christin Geall
Following the success of her first book, Geall turns her focus to revealing how trends in floral artistry and flower arranging reflect our larger global relationship to plants.
Our love of flowers and desire to be close to them has, across cultures and for millennia, created both landscapes and livelihoods. In this book, Christin Geall covers hot topics such as aesthetics, appropriation, fair trade, floriculture, globalization, indigeneity, modernism, seasonality, and tokenism—to name only a few of the over eighty entries presented here in an accessible A to Z format.
In her inimitable style, Geall shares personal stories and ideas from growers and designers, weaving her narratives between art, ecology, and history to get readers truly thinking about their relationships to plants, gardens, and design.
Groundbreaking, unique, and beautiful, Flora Culture: How Flowers Shape Our World features over 250 images from over 40 countries, taking readers on a journey across cultures and continents in search of a deeper understanding of how we might live with plants in a changing planet.
