This book is an experimental project based on the idea of
portable gardens, exploring the subject of the imaginary garden
as a place where one can escape.
Its A6 size emphasises the idea that it can
be carried inside a pocket and it can be used; rather than
being limited to staying on a bookshelf. The book contains
original images created by association of various elements
that could suggest nature and gardening. They are spontaneous,
accidental and experimental.
