                    During May and June I spent time with my father in his garden in the Strathbogie Ranges in Victoria. I’ve been working on a video capturing this time, my father’s lifelong passion for gardening, and the inspiration I’ve derived from it. Music:  Jim White, Xylouris White Picciotto, Marisa Anderson.

                    The project brings together strands of practice and conceptual ideas that I’ve been working with for decades, at a crucial period in time. It is a poetic documentation investigating a personal history that points to a future. Capturing last footage of my 87 year old father at different times of day in various climatic conditions. It includes footage of myself dancing and moving around in this garden both alone and in duet with my father.
