Head For Flowers Supreme Sculpture

Experience the fusion of fine art and horticultural life with ‘Head for Flowers’, a flagship piece from the Foras Sculpture Collection. Originally inspired by a Salvador Dalí drawing that Managing Director Claire Brutnall kept on her studio wall for over four decades, this breath-taking sculpture explores the coexistence of strength, beauty, and the resilience of nature.

‘Head for Flowers’ is more than a static monument; it is a living vessel. Standing at an impressive 6ft tall, the figure is depicted in a powerful yet graceful posture, holding a bowl above her shoulders. This bowl serves as a functional planter, transforming the sculpture’s “head” into a seasonal, ever-changing crown of blooms.

Handcrafted in Supreme Resin, a material exclusive to Foras, the sculpture features a smooth finish that offers the substantial look and feel of a bronze, while remaining lightweight, weather-resistant and durable enough to withstand the elements. An alternative textured finish is also available, revealing the character and artistry of the hand-moulding process for a more sculptural, organic appearance. A natural stone edition will also be coming soon.

Designed with practicality as well as beauty in mind, the planter features a generous planting capacity and an integrated drainage hole.

Each sculpture is supplied with a stainless-steel plinth, allowing the piece to be securely stabilised and fixed into concrete to ensure complete stability and no movement in all weather conditions.

Debuting at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and the RHS Sandringham Flower Show, the sculpture was planted with rose varieties from Peter Beales Roses, celebrating a shared heritage of craftsmanship, horticulture, and growth.
