Vertical gardens that could operate simultaneously as unique town signifiers and a new industry defined by the propagation of gardens as opposed to the pulping of trees
About
Overview Students were directly engaged in film making activity – including shooting Super 8 B-grade horror clips of the school vegetable garden and digital footage shot via an iPhone through a microscope at varied cross-sections of plants (vegetable and endemic). The multiple films were projected on the homes and commercial buildings of Triabunna, charging the township with B-grade botanical horror films that reframed their locale, fusing the real with the imaginary, translating multiple narratives of the town through the moving images created by the students that lived there. More than 600 hundred visitors viewed the basement of 51 Collins St Hobart, surprised by the extraordinary, unknown subterranean space, and the curious and compelling footage and installation components.
