The Wallflower Series of works was exhibited at Stella Downer Fine Art in Sydney as part of a group exhibition with fellow artist Janet Dawson and Merrick Fry. In this work Coppola returns to the decorative influences of William Morris wallpaper design and contrasts this with elements of native Australian orchids. It is an exploration of the feminine, the decorative and the sensual qualities of the media.
