Recursive Gardens explores how Kindergarten and its educators shaped the development of 20th century art and design in Germany and positions nurture rather than genius as a predictor of success. Paper weaving, a Kindergarten occupation, is both the primary material of the installation and a metaphor for how to build and mend the future in which the body is present, “women's work” is fundamental, and care drives the process.
