Florilegium is a multi-media installation by James Gill and David Traylor. It is an abstract portrayal and interpretation of gardens and nature. Unlike many traditional florilegia, the installation is neither a published collection of works nor a physical collection of illustrations. It is a weaving together of paintings, large-scale photographs, and garden “folly” sculptures. Since the late 16th century, the term “florilegium” has been used to broadly describe anthologies or collections of chosen pieces. Over time, it has come to literally mean “flower book” that focuses on the beauty, depiction, and status of plants. These works were often used to showcase private gardens, allowing owners to display both their collections and their “refined” taste.
