INTERSPECIES PERFORMANCE
2018 | UJAZDOWSKI CASTLE CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY ART
Gardens were and are the theatrum of nature itself, which—no matter what functions it performs—is exhibited in them for show [...]." Every living organism residing in them is in a sense an actor. As a whole, however,gardens as space-time, dynamic formations have a performative structure,whose components are both human and non-human beings, activities as well as processes. They form a network of dependencies in which man and nature define each other, interacting with each other.
