Through talking to medina about where i was with this project, or where i wasn't, she gave me the names of some artists to look at for inspiration and one of them was Marc Quinn. at first when i looked at his work all i thought was that it looked pretty. however, when i read his overview of these paintings i became really interested. the work is about how "human desire has created new seasons - bringing together in one geographical location...their beauty belies a sinister subtext: the relentless human desire to control nature".
I also found his flowers sculptures on his website which i've actually seen at the Yorkshire sculpture park. He describes his sculptures as "the purest and most magical transformation of reality into art".
