Garden of Everything
Entitled Garden of Everything, the installation by Juju Wang takes the form of a majestic openwork sphere. Its is crafted from stainless steel and gold leaf. Its surface, engraved with delicate vegetal motifs, captures and refracts light to project floral arabesques in motion—a living landscape that shifts with each change of perspective. Through this interplay of engraving, reflection, and illumination, the artwork embodies a perpetual cycle of transformation, where nature’s breath meets human ingenuity.
Created through a meticulous process combining metalwork precision and hand-applied gold detailing, the piece mirrors the balance between laboratory and garden, science and sensibility. The sphere becomes both an object and an atmosphere—a poetic monument to regeneration and harmony.
