Our garden’s artworks are displayed in different forms and locations. The murals are in the middle of the planting islands. Some of these works are drawings inspired by Henri Matisse, some of which are general modern line drawings. The line drawings are our interpretation of the artworks. There is a simple laser-cut drawing on the roof of the pergola, which creates a spectacular shadow on the ground. Through our garden, we want to bring out the different strong emotions that the garden and art together create in us. A garden can enhance the experience of art through associations and sensory stimulation. It can evoke our memories and emotions, creating a more personal experience that has a stronger impact. Meeting Senses is a garden where art and nature meet.
