i’m jealous of gerda steiner and jörg lenzlinger

Oh my word.

This breathtaking installation was created for the 50th Biennial of Venice in 2003, and found it’s home in San Staë church on the Canale Grande. It’s entitled Falling Garden, and is the work of collaborating Swiss artists, Gerda Steiner and Jörg Lenzlinger. I honestly don’t know if I’m more jealous of them and their obvious artistic genius, or those very lucky people lying underneath this fantastically beautiful falling garden… I think it might be a tie.

    At first I thought that the installation part of the photos must have been added in photoshop or something! It’s that incredible & unreal! I’m totally jealous, too.
