‘Garden Manifesto’ is gathering visions on the future of art practice presented in the form of a collective digital garden. It is collaborative poetry mixed with contemplative drawings of a garden, creating inspiring metaphors to think about our relation to nature, art, and creation as essential to our everyday experience. Same as in artists’ manifestos, these reflections are inevitably tackling a wider position of art production. ‘Wild Garden’ is an additional layer to the Garden Manifesto’s homepage. It allows various content to be a part of the designed garden. Using the hashtag system - each tagged image is redirected to the website. It allows the garden to freely grow by the accumulation of content.
Contributing artists are Magali Dougoud, Sum-Sum Shen, Ilya Selikhov, pavleheidler, Luana Lojić, Keegan Luttrell and Baldassare Ruspoli.
Presented at Framed Berlin and the online public launch of ‘Everything is New’ initiated by Nikolay Alutin, De Appel, Amsterdam. The project is supported by Goethe Institute Netherlands.
