read an extract from Her Leafy Eye (pdf)

A poet and an artist/garden designer collaborate to catch the spirit of the revolutionary landscaped gardens of the eighteenth century and bring it into focus for our times. The text and computer-generated illustrations are in a shifting three-way dialogue with each other and with the culture of ‘landscape’. Initially inspired by the gardens at Rousham in Oxfordshire, familiar features such as a rill, a dovecot, espaliers and a walled garden all make an appearance – though these turn out to be simply the leaping-off point for a grand tour of the imagination.
