Det här är paradis (This is paradies)

During my recidency at the Faroe Islands, I looked for a theme that could tell me something about life on these small atlantic islands, far away from the center of Europe. I then started to notice that the gardens seemed different from what I am used to.
Mountains and fjords, a dominating, powerful landscape. Storms and rain is part of every day life. In summer the average temperature is 12 degrees. How does one live with these conditions? Is it then important to have a garden? What does the gardener dream about? As I talked to different people, their gardens was a starting point for discussions about questions of life in general. In our conversations surprising answers were given to questions I had not even verbalised to myself.
