"I don't think anyone would be brave enough to mentor me as I am very hard to pin down and can be quite mercurial. I surround myself with people who know me well and keep me on track, but ultimately I make my own moves."
Florist, author and fragrance creator Saskia Havekes first opened her small flower shop, Grandiflora, in Sydney’s Pott’s Point over 20 years ago. Four books, three fragrances and countless large-scale installations and floral posies later, Saksia’s striking aesthetic continues to influence a visual world far beyond the art of flower arranging.
