Skowmon Hastanan |
“Orchid Clinic” This project is a part of Art in Odd Places 2015: |
 |
Free demonstration and consultation on growing orchids at the Union Square Greenmarket will be given by artist Skowmon Hastanan. She will be working alongside flower vendors, and setting up an information table with orchid care information and reference books. |

Growing orchids has been Skowmon's passion for the past 30 years. She occasionally accepts and rescues unwanted orchids; at times there are between eighty to one hundred plants in her home. This personal pursuit is a continuation of her “Homesick” art series, a nostalgic reminder of her tropical home in Thailand. |
