Willow Bulb

This project was a journey alongside my final year dissertation at university, it is an exploration of interactive art and aims to encourage spending time in nature. This structure is built of grey willow, yellow willow and red dogwood. Six months on it has started to grow and has soft new leaves and fluffy willow catkins on it!

If you’d like some insight into some of the inspiration and origin ideas of this piece, we recorded a podcast about it!

“This podcast features a conversation with Alis Joscelyne, an undergraduate student on the BA (Hons) Artist Designer Maker course at Cardiff School of Art & Design, about her final year research project which explores the idea that a deeper connection with nature, facilitated by an interactive art installation, can be beneficial for overall wellbeing.”
