The Giving Garden

Collective Haunt ARI, Norwood, Kaurna Yerta

The Giving Garden explores the pleasure of growing edible flowers and giving garden produce through sculptural artworks made with combinations of traditional and garden-derived materials. 
Gardens provide a source of solace in times of crisis. The home produce garden is a site of reciprocal care, sought out in times of crisis to build up an attractive field around oneself whilst also building ecological function. The garden acts as a support structure for human and plant companion's wellbeing and nourishment. 
The exhibition invites viewers to engage in giving and taking home grown produce in the gallery. Give what you can, take what you need.

I acknowledge that I live and work on the Country of the Kaurna people. I pay my respects to Elders past and present. I recognise and respect their culture heritage, traditions and relationships to Country and acknowledge they are of continued importance to living Kaurna people living today. This land was never ceded.
