About:

The artist’s childhood memory of a patch of English garden protected by a worn saree will be created and sustained in collaboration with local residents.

This installation brings layers of new life to the space with growing beds constructed from crates and pallets sourced from local businesses, and embellished with sarees donated to charity shops.
