Garden of Archives

The “Garden of Indexical Crosswords” installation uses an index cabinet to symbolize the Archive, asserting the paramount importance of knowledge access.

It highlights that knowledge is universally shareable and encourages visitors to forge personal meanings from grid-arranged books.

The inclusion of wires and mainboards represents the rhizomatic, collaborative, and dynamic nature of contemporary archives (Deleuze).

Dragon fruits turn the space into a living garden, actively defying the stereotype of sterile, dusty archives.
