All The Gardens I Could Find
During her residency at PICA, Melanie will concentrate on developing a comprehensive cataloguing system for all the material in her personal photographic archive related to gardens. Drawing on photographs that depict a wide range of historical and contemporary gardens worldwide, she will consider the slippages between traditional classification systems and subjective, intuitive interpretations. Guiding this process are the central questions ‘how do we manage the endless quantity of images?’ and ‘how does the archiving process create meaning from the disorder?’
