This new work by Heather and Ivan Morison for the British Art Show 6 was the latest in the Morisons’ ongoing investigation into the commercial flower industry, looking specifically this time at the haulage of flowers from auction to wholesalers. For one day, a jack-knifed lorry shed its load of 25,000 flowers across Bristol City Centre. Two written responses were commissioned and published on the Situations website.

Arts & Ecology is a programme supporting the work of the arts in examining and addressing environmental concerns in an international arena. The programme explores the current practice of artists, writers, architects and film-makers through a series of conferences, publications and projects that looks at local and global projects that attempt to communicate, challenge and sometimes propose solutions to pollution, waste and loss of natural habitats. Situations hosted three residencies in Bristol in 2007.
