Description
Ebony Patterson’s immersive residency, the first in the garden’s history, explores themes of race, gender, class and violence amid the serene settings of the natural world—a metaphor for darker truths often hidden beneath a beautiful surface. Patterson’s 2018 traveling exhibition, …While the Dew Is Still on the Roses…, helps serve as inspiration for this project, which continues to showcase dichotomies: peacocks and birds of prey, poisonous plants and those used in medicine.
