Vazio S/A's Paysage de Feu suspends inverted branches above water, creating a garden installation for the 2020 International Garden Festival at Chaumont-sur-Loire.

The project
Rows of branches hang with their tips close to a shallow pool. Reflections extend their shapes into the water, while gravel and planted edges frame the installation.
The work changes as visitors move around it, from an open view across the pool to close views of the intertwined branches. The repeated hanging forms give the small garden a distinct canopy.
