The King of Sustainability is now on display at the Royal Society of Arts. Created by artist Michael Shellis in collaboration with social entrepreneur Taz Khan MBE, this striking portrait of His Majesty The King is made entirely from reclaimed and natural materials. Constructed from salvaged wood, discarded materials, fallen petals and flowers collected from London's Royal Parks, and organic dyes made from coffee waste, the artwork reflects His Majesty's long-standing environmental philosophy. Part of the Royal Collection Trust the work is being lent by The King for public display at the Royal Society of Arts following its recent exhibition at Mansion House. You can view The King of Sustainability in the Benjamin Franklin Room at The House until September.
