‘Look! Look! Look!’ by Heather and Ivan Morison at Berrington Hall, Herefordshire, UK

Look! Look! Look! sees a striking sculptural pavilion created by internationally renowned artists Heather and Ivan Morison take centre stage at the National Trust’s historic Berrington Hall in Herefordshire.

The 8-metre-tall by 8-metre-wide pink structure inhabits the walled garden at the Georgian mansion, highlighting the importance of this piece of ‘living history’ as the final masterpiece by iconic Georgian landscape designer Capability Brown.

The artists were inspired by the popularity of garden buildings or ‘eye-catchers’ such as these in the Georgian era. The folded form of the structure echoes the geometric shapes found in the interior design of the mansion, and it also bears more than a passing resemblance to a pineapple – inspired by eighteenth-century traditions of importing exotic fruit, particularly pineapples which are thought to have been once grown at Berrington.

The artwork also marks the start of Berrington’s plans to raise funds to research and restore its walled garden back to its Georgian origins.

Look! Look! Look! is open to the public until December 2019 and will house a programme of events and activities throughout the summer including music and yoga.
