Step into The Grotto (II), an immersive garden retreat that transforms Platform Arts’ Courtyard Gallery into a living exploration of landscape design, wellbeing and our connection to nature.
Curated by Sarah Jones, this site-responsive installation reimagines a garden originally created by horticulturist Kate Baker for the 2026 Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show.
Through thoughtful planting, natural materials and sensory design, The Grotto (II) invites visitors to slow down, reflect and experience how designed landscapes can nurture biodiversity, creativity and wellbeing.
Discover a contemporary vision of the garden as a space for restoration, connection and design inspiration.
