Berlin artist Holger Hönck presents unique interior compositions, entitled Hanging Gardens, with lighting objects that are impressive yet at the same time moving. He combines nature and art in these objects, in his own uncommon way. The artist collects plants, blossoms and grasses in his environment, prepares them in an intricate process and presents them in handcrafted light boxes made of high-quality wood. In this way, long-lasting, exclusive, handcrafted, unique objects are created. The concept emerged from a desire to integrate plants into urban architecture. In an extensive process, in which Holger Hönck constantly tried out new ideas or arrangements in his studio in Prenzlauer Berg in Berlin, a completely new landscape emerged – the Hanging Gardens were born. They are based on a detailed preparation process, which the artist developed himself and has constantly refined. The dimmable interior/art objects are available in different sizes. An important prerequisite, and a sign of respect for nature, is to deal with all materials in a way that conserves the environment, energy and resources as much as possible. Everything should be as it was created, apart from the preservation of the colours with special pigments, a process necessary to guarantee the high quality of the colours.
