I came across this image and just love the magical quality of the room as well as the colours of the mobiles suspended from the ceiling. The installation is called 'Falling Garden' and was part of the 50th Bienneial of Venice in 2003.
Here is list of the components that were used to create it -
Plastic berries (India), cow pads (Jura), waste paper (Venice), baobab seeds (Australia), beech, elder and magnolia branches (Uster), thorns (Almeria), nylon blossoms (one-dollar-shop), pigs’ teeth (Indonesia), seaweed (Seoul), orange peel (Migros shop), fertilizer crystals (home grown), pigeons’ bones (San Staë), silk buds (Stockholm), cattail (Ettiswil), cats’ tails (China), celery roots (Montreal), virility rind (Caribbean), wild bore quills (zoo), banana leaves (Murten), rubber snakes (Cincinnati)...I think this would be a wonderful space for a wedding reception or party!
