The Green & The Gardens, 2019
The Green and the Gardens, 2019, focused on a holistic need for a communal and public shared space. As such, Gander worked directly with the commissioners chosen landscape architects, Gillespies, to create a space that included rain gardens to ensure a natural drainage system, wildflowers to increase biodiversity and intimate spaces for groups to relax, escape and find inspiration. The artistic elements mimicked the common groups of England’s villages, featuring a series of highly realistic fibreglass sculptures of tents positioned in the landscape that lit up during the night, as well as fences, a gateway, a stile and a communal notice board.
Permanently installed at Cambridge Biomedical Campus, UK.
