In The Garden

The photographic series “IN THE GARDEN” depicts scenes from a fictional indoor - garden complex. The world we observe appears to be entirely artificial, a plastic utopia, carefully designed to deliver happiness and relaxation to it’s inhabitants. Utterly estranged from nature it fails to imitate the actual thing, and leaves it’s viewer with a shallow masquerade. Like parcels that haven’t been picked up the inhabitants are trying hard to cheat themselves into happiness. Bright colors and superficial luxury - a dystopian vision in utopian dress.
