IIt was the first time I had my own garden while living in London, where I began to notice and experience the seasonal changes, particularly in autumn. I wanted to capture this and see what might emerge through a film camera. From the outset, I set a few simple rules: shots had to remain stationary; there needed to be movement from a light breeze; and the play of light and shadow had to be present.

When the camera negative and print were returned, I developed the piece further by projecting the film with two overlapping screens. During live presentations I introduced different ideas to each shot, performing various manipulations with the film projectors in real time.
