The botanical world of Mary Delany and Georgie Hopton – a domestic arrangement

A unique collaborative project focused on the work of two women artists, Mary Delany (1700–1788) and Georgie Hopton (1967–). This meeting of artistic minds across two and a half centuries will combine the display of British Museum Touring Exhibition The botanical world of Mary Delany with artworks and newly commissioned designs for wallpaper and fabric by Georgie Hopton. These two artists are connected by their shared passion for and knowledge of plants and specifically flowers, coupled with their creative skill and ability for exquisite handcrafting.
