Description
In collaboration with the 'Holding The Vessel' exhibition at The Chopping Block Gallery in Peckham, we are hosting a Demijohn Terrarium workshop on the afternoon of Sunday 13th November.
Join London Terrariums for an afternoon of getting your hands dirty surrounded by the exhibition of 11 selected artist collaborations.
You will learn how a terrarium works; how these self-contained ecosystems survive so well on their own and how to look after them.
We will start with a short introduction explaining the history and science that goes into building a terrarium, from the different plants you can use to why activated charcoal has become an essential for us.
Then it is up to you guys to get your hands in there and build your own!
We will supply you with a Demijohn Jar which you will fill with various Fittonia and Ivy and an arrangement of pebbles and moss.
Ask us any questions you have and by the end of the session you will have your own exciting miniature garden to take away and watch develop over the next months and years.
All contents, Jar and tools are supplied.

Holding The Vessel
10th - 13th November
For the show, 11 artists have created sculptural supports for terrariums.
Terrariums are sealed glass containers housing plants. The lid of the terrarium acts as a way to enclose the contained ecosystem inside, a self-sustaining world. A terrarium lid is often made of cork, used due to its porous properties, which allows air to flow while still securing the entrance. The bases act to support the terrarium. The terrarium can exist within the artwork in any way. The plants are enclosed within spherical glass boiling flasks; unable to stand alone, these vulnerable vessels need a support system.
Featuring work from Olivia Bax, François Brunet, Ian Daniell, Hannah Dargavel-Leafe, Lauren Godfrey, Emily Iremonger, Justine Melford-Colegate, Hattie Moore, Ziad Nagy, Daniel Powell & Anna Reading
