Autor

Rachel Dein studied Fine Art at Middlesex University, then trained as a prop maker for the English National Opera and worked as a freelancer for 15 years at numerous theatres and museums, including Madame Tussauds, the Royal Opera House and Shakespeare’s Globe in London. Throughout this time Dein continued to work on personal art projects. Having stopped freelancing to look after her three young children, she began casting small plaster tiles in her studio at home. Dein exhibited at a local gallery and immediately began getting commissions for her botanical bas-reliefs. Her art has been published in Elle Decoration, House & Garden, Vogue, Architectural Digest, Gardens Illustrated, Period Living, Country Life, The Daily Telegraph, Martha Stewart Living, The Irish Times and Gardenista. Recent books that feature her work include In Bloom, Cast and The Botanical Bible. Previous exhibitions include: The Cambridge Darkroom Gallery, Ben Uri Gallery, Hampstead School of Art and the Aga Khan Centre Gallery. Rachel has exhibited at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in London for almost a decade. She was artist-in-residence for the National Trust’s Hidcote Manor Gardens 2018-19 and Nunnington Hall 2022-23.
