SPRING EPHEMERALS

SIMON GARDEN — OBERLIN COLLEGE CONSERVATORY

SIMON GARDEN

2010

This garden was conceived and installed in collaboration with artist Joanna Bean. Diagonally crosscut aluminum tubes pattern a largely flat ground plane. At a sloped edge the same tubes reveal their three-dimensionality. Tiny ephemeral wildflowers and the shade of two witch hazel trees enhance the pattern.
