A site-specific ‘live nature craft’ installation artwork situated at STANHOLME. This is the garden as a botanic circus in which trees perform topiary tricks for our delectation and amusement. It is a palace of dreams at the beginning of a journey into the foundational myths of the romantic and repressed garden. An allotment of utopian primitivism and post-modern symbolism. As an infant of nature it includes fascist imagery in inappropriate planting, redemptive tree graffiti and a willow tunnel.
