 [BBC Gardeners' World Live 2024](https://gardensdb.com/shows/bbc-gardeners-world-live-2024) - Beautiful Borders

Making Space
============

 Border

 Art-making, like gardening, brings people together and becomes a language with which to transcend socio-political boundaries. Celebrating the beauty and generosity of more-than-human beings, a garden is the perfect shared space to dream, play, create and cultivate the important conversations that will heal our world. Whether used as a tool, material, ink or dye, every plant in this garden has a use which might inspire creative action. ​ As an artist and trainee gardener, I take great inspiration from my explorations of the East Sussex landscape. As such, this garden design is not only informed by the creative uses of plants, but also the geology and landscape of East Sussex, so that visitors might share a glimpse of the environment that cradles the artistic practice of myself and countless other gardeners and makers.
