Originally commissioned as a temporary installation for the roof deck of the Aspen Art Museum, "Garden" features 43 wire-rope sculptures that burst forth from the rooftop's planters, acting as an unwieldy vine among the existing flora and fauna.

The work was subsequently reinstalled at the Oklahoma Contemporary and the Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art.
