Transitioning from day to night can transform places into different worlds. In a garden, a space within an agglomeration where life and death continually occur on both macro and micro scales, this transformation can be intense. Are there plants and flowers that awaken precisely in the dark, or perhaps exist only in it? What creatures inhabit this reality? The lack of light and visibility allows speculations to take root and grow freely, creating a dark fantasy through the relationship between the mysterious and the organic.
