The Garden and
Safe Passage comprise a two-part, multidisciplinary artwork developed by Erik Madigan Heck over four years, in collaboration with a number of artists in different media.
The work has taken shape as a book, a musical
score, two
scents, a series of
poems and
writings, with a short
film. All of which are brought together here as Gestalten Veldt.
To create these different pieces, Erik Madigan Heck worked with Frits Wentink, Tilda Swinton, Leanne Shapton, Nassia Kalamakis, Les EAux Primordiales, Ben Grandgenett, A Practice For Everyday Life, Matthew Herbert, A Soft Pink Truth, BvDub, and East of Oceans.
