"A more powerful longing for the earth"

"You are bewildered by what we have told you, but the phe-nomenon we are trying to explain is truly bewildering." A love poem to the abundant gardens within, and the things they can grow in secret. Berg takes inspiration from Hilma af Klint, the Swedisn painter and mystic who founded De Fem. “The Five” held séances and used automatic writing to record spiritual messages about the world of plants and atoms.
