About the Item
Oil on canvas in six parts
With each subsequent exhibition, Green has expanded the botanical content from single trees, bushes and weeds to now entire gardens--teeming with growth and rich with animal and plant life. Depicting plants blooming and thriving during the night, her cast of anthropomorphic characters includes Starlings, Stargazer Lilies, King and Queen Proteas, Peace Lilies, Royal Mushrooms and Monarch Butterflies. Enveloped in darkness yet illuminated by the starry sky, Green’s lush and mystical environments invite viewers to sit amidst the gardens of metaphors and uncover the stories within. The crown jewel of this series is the monumental and eponymous painting The Night Garden, a single artwork made up of six panels, totaling an impressive 6 foot tall x 12 foot wide. As in each luscious, nocturnal landscape in the series, Green offers us a look at what we mortals are typically not privy to, as we lay asleep indoors. Green shows us the private, nocturnal world outdoors, where plants convene and dance in the night sky, naked and arching north, lit by stardust and moonbeam.
