Encountering the garden.
“A garden is not just a garden”
“There are different places in a garden that offer many different contexts.”
“There were two ways of approaching the thing… finding
somewhere to put the materials, or starting with the
place and selecting the materials that belonged there.”
“Sometimes this was about contrast.”
“The twine mimics the droopiness of the twig.”
“Looking at a material helped me see more in the garden.”
“The pine cone helped us to see similar shapes in the bush - the little buds and the dead flowers.”
