The Spiral

The Spiral, the Uterus Mundi, symbolises the generating matrix of the world, the power of creation and natural order. As Earth architecture, a spiral laurel hedge (Prunus laurocerasus) will define a living enclosure. A place of encounters and performance stage, it is also an astronomical calendar, with markers pointing to the solstices and equinox and signalling the time for seasonal rituals of celebration of life and renewal.

A woven living structure, it will provide a protected nesting environment and food for migrating birds.
