Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Pollinator Pathmaker, Serpentine Edition Garden, 2022. © readsreads.info. Courtesy Serpentine. Pollinator Pathmaker is an ongoing living sculpture made of plants. Unlike most gardens, this one is designed to prioritise the needs of endangered pollinating insects, rather than to please humans. For her contribution to Back to Earth in 2022, artist Dr Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg has created an edition of Pollinator Pathmaker which has been planted near Serpentine in Kensington Gardens. The work is laid out in eleven beds along the length of North Flower Walk, which is located next to Lancaster Gate.
