The Paper Blooms Project

The Paper Blooms Project is a collaborative based exhibition composed of hand-made paper flowers to create a community garden. The flowers were made by local and regional volunteers to unite and support the community through art.

Groups and individuals were invited to participate by creating single or multiple pieces for this purposeful and interactive display. The installation cultivated an educational experience with a bold and colourful display of a wide range of plants labelled with their botanical names. Within the space, there was also a memorial garden, where individuals created a flower to commemorate and honor a loved one.

Upon the conclusion of the show, flowers from The Paper Blooms Project were made into bouquets and donated to areas of need within our locality. The Paper Blooms Project was an art installation created by our community, to be enjoyed as a public space, and returned to support the community.
