Growing Culture is realized as a mobile garden object in public space and was developed specifically for the Foggy Bottom Biennale. The work consists of a planted container shaped like a suitcase, which was placed over several months in the front yards of different houses in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood. At each location, the artist engaged directly with the residents of the respective house. Conversations about the origins of the plants intertwined with biographical exchanges between the participants and the artist. The garden thus became a catalyst for encounter, dialogue, and shared care. The garden brings together native, foreign, edible, and ornamental plants. Growth, maintenance, and seasonal change determine the condition of the work, making time visible as a formative factor. Over the course of the project, the object changed location four times and was continuously cared for. Artistic practice and social action intersect: mobility is not only addressed symbolically but enacted through carrying, placing, tending, and passing on the garden. Space emerges through relationship, use, and duration rather than through fixed architectural structures.
