According to a write-up in the Festival’s Official Show Programme, Rick Eckersley came from a sheep grazing farm background in southern Australia before moving into the creation of beautiful gardens. The environmental theme he explores here – juxtaposing rural farming implements & materials and rugged natural plantings against the ‘pure, delicate forms of exotic garden plants’ - ‘is a provocative insight into the land and how it is managed’.
