Riassunto

An intertextual, fictionalized narrative weaves together several years of Mexican artist Erick Meyenbergs observations, research, video recordings, and paintings based on logbooks kept by gardener Chris Shea. Meyenbergs conversations with Shea about his ephemeral landscape infer the change and loss inherent in human life and propels the deep emotional intelligence of this bilingual book as it reflects on time, creation, and the inspiration of the natural world. Sheas remarkable, nuanced, and delicate language for color is reflected in Meyenbergs layered appreciation for the garden Shea tended until the end of his life. Eloisa Haudenschild, Director of inSite, commissioned Meyenbergs project with Shea for haudenschildGarage in La Jolla, California, and enlisted curator Ruth Estévez, the texts author.
For more information about the project see the haudenschildGarage website.
