A series originally from 2000: Todays episode was about the work devoted to an exhibit of the Devonshire Tapestry at the V&A museum---with a grass 'tapestry'.

It's noted there is no green in the D tapestries, of course. I thought it would be about bringing a garden into the V&A.

No, through manipulation of how much light his this lawn patch, images were placed onto this giant lawn roll. A grass tapestry.

No, I'm sorry, no pictures. Believe me, this is frustrating (as noted, the exhibit was in 2000). I'm still googling however--even the V&A exhibition archive goes back to just after this installation.

But you must listen to the technology, design and imagination that created this concept. And the sounds and voices of the installation process.

This is a post for both
