Six WBC beehives awaiting bees. Inscription:
BEES; they lightly skim; and gently sip; the dimply river's brim; BOATS.
Branches from coppiced wood, fixed to a wall and covered with wet clay and human hair. Cracks due to drying process, the patterns of the fissures dictated by the shape and form of the tree.
"Stone Coppice and Stone House explore the space above and below ground. Clay Tree Wall explores the surface between the two."
Inspired by an old star map, 1170 corten steel elements and 1019 steel balls welded together to form the non-regular polygonal structure of a crouching figure. Sited on a horizon; best viewed with the sky through it.
"Think about the endless condition of the sky and the conditioned space of architecture."
Terraced earthworks with embedded paths, summit sculptures and inscriptions. Mounds of soil and turf; sculptures comprising iron, red sandstone, concrete and Liesegang rock.
"A landform celebration of the cell as the basis of life."
12-metre-high orchid digitally painted onto a polyflax canvas, adhered to a stainless steel orchid sculpture then coated with polyurethane resin.
"A modified flower at once monstrous and seductively beautiful demonstrating the ways in which human desires are now shaping the natural world."
Pair of mesostic poems for each of the 38 original remedies created by Dr Edward Bach. Plates from the book published by Jupiter Artland and illustrated by Laurie Clark displayed in the Gallery.
"The poems reflect the positive and negative characteristics ascribed to each remedy."
Dust of precious moon rock scattered all over the estate by way of the opening firework display in May 2009. A subverted National Trust plaque sited in the woods will commemorate the event.
"The firework display was inspired by Whistler's 'Nocturne in Black and Gold, The Falling Rocket' (1875) and Debussy's Nocturnes."

Unused boulders from Stone House placed in coppiced trees with limbs able to hold them. The work will be tended, managing the installation and the coppiced wood. A further round of stones might be placed in 10-15 years.
"A living, growing, changing sculpture in which people and wood play equally important roles."
Stone house built of locally quarried stone.
"Houses are usually places of security, shelter and comfort. There is something unnerving about entering a building in which nature is the occupant."
Portland stone with gold leaf lettering. The quote 'Consecutive upon Apollo a titanic revolt in his heart' is from L.A. St-Juste, Finlay's 'Apollo of the French Revolution'.
"Temple (n): a sacred place; a place menaced by bailiffs."
