The Green Wall
Since the beginning of the year, an elaborate and carefully constructed The Green Wall has been on display on 3/F. Composed of tree cotton, ramie plants, and 2 large pieces of hand embroidered art, the piece is aimed at highlighting the importance of plants.
Plants provide us with oxygen, materials, clothing, and an overall heightened sense of well-being. At The Mills, we have teamed up with curator Lab Pheno and botanist Forest Round Round to use cotton and linen in creating the embroidered art.
By displaying the raw materials and elaborate artwork created using cotton and linen, we hope that The Green Wall gives visitors a better understanding and appreciation of all that plants provide us, now and throughout history.
At The Mills, we want to carry on our legacy as a former textile mill with a future of applied creativity and innovation, and continue to touch upon topics through an interesting and aesthetic way.
