~ Embassies
‘Inside The Embassy’ explores the possibilities of a Diplomatic Mission serving individuals and not a country. Within a Community Centre in South London - a hub for social gathering and a multitude of citizenship - specific events are used as an instrument to render the identity and cultural patterns of each member. Their social backgrounds are translated into flower arrangements and reveal a zone of representation when transposed into the context of a home.
Within those activities, props become agents reflecting on the commonalities of each member - a tropical background, immigration status and their neighbourhood. The political notion of flowers draw similarities as to those used inside embassies or throughout official events at the white house where flowers are used as a political statement to invite and contribute to diplomatic relationships.
