About The Night Garden

Experimental Short Mobile Film (2022)

The Night Garden is an experimental, movement-based short film, shot entirely on smart phones.

Through a cartography of associations, imagery, and poetry, its surrealist episodes offer a harvest of ideas, images, and meditations for the dream feast.

The series of seven vignettes rendered from dreams and the unconscious conjures an array of characters and scenarios including: Chekhov in an existential crisis with Picasso’s Lover of Absinthe; a film noir that follows the dreams and waking trances of a man, a woman, and a herd of tiny cattle; a kaleidoscopic vision of a woman’s interactions with an imaginary friend and a ghost; a caterpillar woman’s transformation and foray into a garden of fountains and marble statues; three mythological creatures who unleash the contents of a jewel box; and a family confronting their heritage and communing with each other throughout the city and forest.

Through a cartography of associations, imagery, and poetry, The Night Garden offers a harvest of ideas, images, and meditations for the dream feast.

Co-created by Daria Karpova, Anastasia Nesterova, Marissa Nielsen-Pincus, Tom Pearson, and Renata Zhigulina, the episodes interweave characters, objects, and imagery that thread together a short film which follows a nightly dream sequence.

The work is built through a practice of dream-sharing and associations. Filmed on location in St. Petersburg, Russia, The Night Garden is shot exclusively on smart phones (primarily iPhone 6).

Sponsored by CEC ArtsLink’s Back Apartment Residency and the Art Prospect Festival, with support from the Trust for Mutual Understanding, this project was organized as an intimate collaboration between U.S. and Russian-based artists in 2018 as a project of cultural listening and exchange. For one month, the group met, lived, and worked together to ideate, storyboard, film, and share directing and editing responsibilities while also acting and filming with and for one another to create the interwoven vignettes. As the work emerged, so did a shared vocabulary and ethos.

The Night Garden demonstrates and models an artist-led work of compassion, cooperation, and creativity, which we hope will nurture the viewer as much as it did us in its development. This film is intended as a beacon of potentiality—something we, as collaborators from nations with historically complicated relations, wish to share as a model for right relationship between us—together sharing, creating, and caring for one another. ” – Tom Pearson, Co-creator
