Vellum LA, working in partnership with Standard Vision, presents Maggie West’s Eternal Garden at Standard Vision Studios on August 29th, 2021.
Eternal Garden is a surreal digital landscape created by combining colorful time-lapse photography. Throughout the pandemic, West photographed flowers from her garden under a spectrum of colored lights, capturing the growth process while altering the visual properties of each plant. The footage was then combined into surreal floral landscapes; blooming and evolving before the viewer’s eyes.
The artist’s groundbreaking animation process extends beyond the boundaries of traditional time-lapse photography and allows her to create complex, surreal ecosystems inside an immersive video experience.
The exhibit featured custom sound design by Things You Say.
NFTs from Eternal Garden are currently listed on on Nifty Gateway. View the collection here.
