      Ghosts and Shadows, documentary

      I think you will see from the video that this show took a great effort on the part of the organizers, partners and the artists to bring together. The results speak for themselves (in one case literally so). But watching the movie is not a substitute for experiencing the work on site. Pick the weather that suits you and take a walk around the grounds and enjoy the site that has been transformed by each artists individually and together.

And beautifully colored and branded gourds can be found in trees, on the forest floor and in the pond.
