Perfume at the Enchanted Palace, Kensington

Here are a few photos from a recent trip to the Enchanted Palace. This is an exhibition currently on in Kensington. The exhibition consists of the work of various artists who have each designed and created all kinds of installations from knitting and fashion design to sculpture and contemporary art.








The first room you enter is the 'Room of Royal sorrows' the various glass flagons and bottles are metaphorical for collecting the Princess' tears and the room invites you to begin to think about the last time you were upset.



I saw this installation as a great inspiration for my final collection. The concept behind it being the idea of collecting and encapsulating something beautiful resonates with the concept of my collection and I decided to create a few digital print designs from the photographs that I took at the exhibition.




This exhibition was great fun and I would advise everyone to see it. For more information about the tickets etc visit: http://www.hrp.org.uk/KensingtonPalace/stories/palacehighlights/EnchantedPalace
