Living Knitted Sculpture
Living Knitted Sculpture
It is said that knitting originated in the Old Stone Age, and that the very first form of knitting was a net, crafted with a single continuous yarn. This product was created with crochet, and no two products are the same. Place a Vanda orchid from the Floating Flower Garden and let it grow in this net, carefully hand-crafted with a single yarn.
Vanda orchids do not grow on soil but live on tall trees. Hang a Vanda in one of these nets, and the roots, overwhelming with the power of life, will take in water from the air.
The Vanda and net become one, forming a sculpture that continues to grow day by day. A part of Floating Flower Garden grows and spreads into new spaces, becoming a living sculpture.
Vandas are full of life, and flowers will blossom several times a year if the plants are taken care of, their flowers growing up to 2 meters tall including their roots. Vandas are said to have a lifespan of over 50 years, and may live on for eternity if new bulbs develop.
