Arbor ∞ Ardor


Arbor ∞ Ardor proposesd a new interspecies courting ritual. Trees and shrubs, woody or willowy, are known for gradual growth and support systems hidden from view. Participants were invited to court the plant of their choice with the help of the artists/intermediaries. Should both plant and participant consent, they were guided into contact together with rope binds. Presented in collaboration with Christy Gast for Swale House, Governors Island, NYC.
