Amanda Marchand
“It’s past midnight, but tonight, by the light of this moon, everything in the garden is luminous. My mother is sleeping and I’m standing listening to the loons, just outside her bedroom window.
In the 2 1/2 years that she is sick with ovarian cancer I never once hear her complain.
So, why not celebrate?
It’s summer, after all, and the heart of the night has a wild secret.” _‘While You Were Sleeping’ by Amanda Marchand
‘Night Garden’ is a book by New York-based Canadian photographer and writer Amanda Marchand. This book contemplates on love, pain and loss from the experience of going through her mother’s ovarian cancer. While her mother was asleep, Marchand walked around the night garden and recorded light, vegetation, and traces of the day onto film negatives. The book, which consoles on infinitesimal human life in the universe, was published one year after her mother’s death. This special edition of 25 includes one original print, signed and numbered.
