Clara Holmes is a Falmouth-based artist whose work documents still life studies around the table. A recent graduate of Falmouth University’s Graphic Design degree, Clara’s art practice is rooted in her research on food culture and the social connections it fosters. Her design work often explores the rituals of shared meals, the significance of dining spaces, and the role of food in bringing people together. Through painting, she translates her research into visual narratives, exploring the relationship between still life, memory, and community.
This Spring Summer, Birdie Fortescue introduces The Vasanti Collection, a celebration of awakening, abundance and joy. The new collection of furniture, lighting, rugs and decorative accessories captures spring’s irresistible spirit through a vibrant symphony of lively colour, intricate pattern and geometric form. Drawing inspiration from the Sanskrit meaning of springtime, Vasanti brings together lively patterns, rich textures, and versatile pieces designed for indoor and outdoor living.
