From the grass under her feet to hallucinatory images like three-legged creatures, she evokes a new world-surpassing what any seeing person could ever come across. The Vivid Garden departed from the question if it is possible to evoke a garden purely in language. The film was shot with a camera obscura, in London's Kew Gardens. The camera is like a dead eye: it receives light but does not transfer it upright through the brains, resulting in a mainly shady world, turned upside down. Seeking for anything recognizable is the main visual drive, resulting in brittle imagery reminiscent of the first experiments in film. In The Vivid Garden the absence of light is as important as the finding of bright details to hang on to.
