Description

Tom Bedger, a floral designer and shopkeeper, creates the atmosphere of Fall in the rooms normally occupied by visiting artists to the Mattress Factory. Deep drifts of fallen leaves cover the furnishings; the mixed scents of autumn and a pervading chill (the windows are kept open) convey a sense of beauty, loss and decay.
