Erica van Zon has made a suite of new sculptures in metal, glass and mirror-perspex to fit amongst the lush botanical plants housed within the neo-Classical conservatory Cuningham House in the Christchurch Botanic Gardens.

The artist has focused on architectural qualities of the space, particularly doorways and windows that have been adapted and re-fashioned. These references have been combined with stylistic reference points from 1980s interior architecture, design magazines and manuals, to consider how architectural tropes and styles are morphed and adapted over time.
