Time:

Speaker:
Bruno Duarte
Bruno
Duarte's approach to floral design is both sculptural and emotional, blending
organic materials and found objects together to create works of art. Every
leaf, every branch, every bloom is a piece of art unto itself. His floral studio in Toronto
is often mistaken for an art gallery, where weekly window displays are created
to showcase his artistry. Nature provides the inspiration for all of his designs. For this special presentation at Filoli, Bruno will combine organic materials using various techniques to both fascinate and engage the beholder.
