My Garden is a sound and text collage based on interviews conducted by the artist Sonya Schönberger in Flora I.

The conversations with allotment garden tenants dealt with expertise and views on the subject of gardens as well as the memories and future prospects of people from very different generations and backgrounds whose lives intersect in the allotment garden. While the individual experiences and perspectives, which span almost a century, are different, the garden forms a common space of experience. The conversations compiled by Sonya Schönberger were translated into typographic images in collaboration with designer Lea Maria Wittich – trees, flower beds and other motifs that characterise the garden. 

In addition, the musical collage, which is the surprising result of a collaboration between the artist and sound artist Norbert Lang, processes the audio interviews from the garden into individual loops as well as a musical sound composition. The result is a multi-layered soundscape that invites reflection on the individual snapshot in relation to the cycles of the seasons and contemporary history. The composition Mein Garten, consisting of 13 tracks, can be heard in the garden via QR codes or on audio devices that can be borrowed from the El Horst restaurant. Mein Garten will also be released as a vinyl record, which can be obtained from the Kunsthaus.
