Curating the prickly pear.
For it’s second iteration of the space, The Prickly Pear is Bruton’s answer to community inspired hospitality. So we are so honoured to curate the artwork that can spark conversation and become the backdrop to this incredible concept.
From tongue and cheek reverse screen prints, kitschy ice lolly dioramas to meticulous hand paper cut works. We wanted to create a feast for the eyes without distracting from the interiors and to weave art seamlessly into the environment, creating layers of texture and storytelling that reward a second glance.
