The creative inspiration for The Memphis Flower Show: M3D On the Edge is an exhibition of sculpture from a diverse group of regional contemporary artists. Besides the exquisite floral interpretations, visitors will view works by Carroll Todd, Allison Smith, Greely Myatt, Terri Jones, Maysey Craddock, Joyce Gingold, Wayne Edge, Brian Russell, and Ted Faiers. All works are three-dimensional and constructed from a variety of materials such as bronze, felt, glass, wood, and steel. While most works will be displayed on pedestals or hung on the wall, others will stand alone of be suspended from the ceiling. The variety of medium and display techniques will challenge and inspire floral arrangers from Memphis and other garden clubs around the United States. After the flower show, the exhibition The Memphis Flower Show: M3D On the Edge will remain in the galleries through June 1.
