Botanical Art Photography
by Kriss MacDonald
“My floral art is inspired by the seasons and location. They are visual stories celebrating what is growing or fading, whether cultivated or wild, and each a celebration of nature. My floral photography is created with real flowers – each one a seasonal story.”
An award-winning calendar for Panasonic
Panasonic Homes, a division of the Japanese multinational electronics company, featured exclusively artworks by Kriss MacDonald in their 2022 calendar ‘In the Garden.´ Panasonic Homes focuses on house building and future-oriented smart cities globally. The calendars, along with gift accessories showcasing her floral art, were distributed to thousands of their customers.
In Japan the calendar won both the ‘Gold Award’ and ‘Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Award’ at the prestigious 73rd National Calendar Exhibition. A desk calendar produced as a gift at the exhibition hall also received an award.
Victoria & Albert Museum
I started writing about connecting children with nature over 10 years ago in Wild About Here.
My photograph of a den building adventure is now in the permanent collection of Young V&A, part of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. The Young V&A opened in July 2023 after a major redevelopment to encourage children to imagine, play and design.
