PARADISE GARDEN + SPA series
multi channel video installation
"The idea behind PARADISE GARDENS + SPA series is
to research the meaning of a powerful metaphor.
This metaphor exists on a very high level of
abstraction and is deeply rooted in our culture.
The second aspect i am interested in is the
easy-to-sell contemporary item of service industry
which you can find in resort and hotel offers
regarding spa treatment and which is in fact a
profan interpretation of the idea of the garden of
Eden.
In Paradise Gardens + Spa the most challenging
part was to get rid of the idea that paradise
gardens always has to be a garden. I had to learn
that i don ́t have to show a French park or
English garden if i want to evoke the impression
of garden of Eden."
