Paradise is what you left
The visitorsees, smells, slightly touches an overwhelming tender beauty that remains inaccessible.
The whole garden is cut into 9 various pieces by a concrete path, each piece being protected by wires and barbwires. The garden is infrastructured but nature itself stays untouchable. It grows wild within strict borders and protects itself againts men's artefacts.
Some tracks end up, some turns are blocked, one way leads from an entrance to the other. Mirrors fixed to the metal structure represent post tense and the possibility of reflection. Entering the garden, only geometrical black dots are seen, pixellike. By leaving the place or turning around, the dots transform into mirrors allowing new perspectives, reflecting oneselve and the sun.
The project offers different experiences whether entering from the east or the west side, being a gradation of plants from low vegetation with warm red colours to high overwhelming plants in tender cold whites.
