Eduardo Padilha & Adelaide Bannerman will be discussing 'The Non-existent Gardener', the current site wide installation by Eduardo Padilha.

The Non-existent Gardener, – an alter ego inspired by the character Agilulf a medieval knight in Italo Calvino’s novel, The Non-existent Knight (1959). The book is an exploration of identity, migration, integration and manners, as observed through Agilulf whose physical presence is represented as an empty suit of amor.
