The Garden is an art installation that is entirely hand-painted and hand-built. The project developed around the aesthetics and philosophies of 16th-century Mughal gardens in India, and utilizes this system of thought to realign social and traditional relations to raise questions about power, ethics, and values in contemporary life.
Mughal-style gardens such as those found in present-day India, Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan are four-walled intramural spaces. Historically, philosophers wrote about these gardens in binary terms; the interior represented perfection, relaxation, and peace, while the exterior represented dysfunction, distress, and chaos.
Presented in the following slides, “The Garden” installation, seeks to carve out illumination and stability in the milieu of chaos by questioning what it means to open the gates between the internal space of serenity and an external world of disorder. The art is continuously shaped and reshaped by the perforation of exoteric problems into an area of esoteric “perfection.” The artist uses painted patterns and repetition to seek beauty in abstract spaces of distress.
