This week we are highlighting floral designers whose work inspires us. Moniek Vanden Berghe is a Belgian designer who trained in Ghent at IMOV. She lists Marc Derudder as her most influential teacher. Moniek's work harmonizes the avant-garde with the inherent grace of nature, and lately includes "mushroom inspired" creations. Follow her work on Instagram @moniekvandenberghe and on her website, available to view in Dutch, English and French.
Vision (from the English translation of Moniek's site)
Everything in nature invites me to experiment, to play, to share...
To enjoy the seasons, and to let others enjoy them as well.
Sharing beauty, to touch and to be touched.
Flowers are for the spirit what food is for the body.
I want my hands and my heart to work in unison,
and wish the same for everyone who works with flowers.
