Description:
I thought of home gardens, community gardens and botanic gardens in the future. Climate changes, such as prolonged raining season, extreme hot weather and great temperature differences causes flood, forest fires, sickness and animals lost habitats. How are man-made, artificial gardens to survive in such circumstances? Where will be the parks and gardens for children and senior citizens? I learned the concept of ‘morph’ from Muller’s morphs terms and I was particularly attracted to one of it: Hypermorph, which it means a mutation that causes an increase in normal gene function. Instead of presenting the scientifically proven images, I choose to present the 'drama' of a surreal, metaphorical hypermorphed garden.
