Scattered around 19 different parts of the Garden, new in situ productions and recontextualisations of previous works, are presented in the exhibition’s natural environment, in part in daylight and in full from sunset until late at night.
The exhibition will also present the first screening the new documentary by Dimitra Kouzi, Do-Nothing Farming 2022, which provides the frame for the preparation of Katerina Katsifaraki’s installation, Seed balls. The video records the participatory production process of seed balls from vegetable seeds and grains in the workshop organized for this purpose by the natural cultivator, Panagiotis Manikis in Alagonia, Taygetos in May 2022.
Ephemeral installations and inconspicuous sculptural interventions in natural materials are spread over the grass and stone. Self-illuminated photographs are translated into landscape paintings amid the greenery, momentary videos like visual “haiku”, and projections without sound create a poetic universe which offers, through wandering and walking among fictional and real paths, an emotive connection with the natural setting and an inner, reflective experience of self.
