Nest - Silver Birch is the beginnings of a new development with Nest Your Kindness Collections.
The inspiration being a strip of silver birch I acquired on my journey home from Dumfries & Galloway summer '15.
I was surprised to discover, on the unfurling of the silver bark, that different species of insects were nestled together within the folds of the bark.
This set me questioning were the insects nestled together to take shelter from the insistent Scottish rain? Or are the different insects happy to make a home together - because they were not to eat each other?
I do love tree bark, especially silver birch, it's gentle strength, healing qualities creatively the subtle colours & paper like quality.
