Flora is the first out of more than 40 huge sculptures which will take over the streets of Edinburgh in Summer 2022 as a part of Εdinburgh Zoo ‘s Tall Trail 'Giraffe About Town' in partnership with Wild in Art. 'Giraffe About Town' is a large-scale public art trail designed to celebrate Edinburgh and engage with the community.

Inspired by the iconic Victoria Street, I wanted to bring a splash of colour to the traditional sandstone backdrop of Edinburgh. The striking colours are carefully picked from the buildings to create a palette that would stand out wherever the sculpture sits in the capital.

After a tough time with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, This design incorporates intricate flowers to symbolize rebirth, recovery and blossoming new beginnings.
