Gardens, is curated by Rachid Bouhamidi and co-conceptualized by Arshia Fatima Haq.
“The garden is conceived of as a place of sanctuary, refuge, isolation, and as a place where emotions and identities are cultivated. It is both a literal environment and a metaphor of the human psyche. Vegetation, soil, organic matter, botanical motifs and patterns, the cycles of flower and fruit, and the waxing and waning of seasons, all become surrogates for aspects of yearning for tranquility, freedom, sexual adventure, and spiritual totality. Gardens are thus transformed in to mirrors of the desires, struggles, and transformations of those who inhabit them. This exhibition interprets the garden in its variegated metaphorical and literal aspects, through a group of artists who use various mediums to explore this realm from tactile to conceptual forms.” – Rachid Bouhamidi and Arshia Fatima Haq
