Journeys: How travelling fruit, ideas and buildings rearrange our environment
at the CCA
"The vagabondage of seeds. The transfer of knowledge and experience as people move from one place to another. The phyiscal reconfiguration of communities. These are among the wide range of topics Journey explores as it seeks to analyze and visually depict how these flows, encounters and migrations unexpectedly change society and our built environment."

"Cucumbers grown organically can develop with a wide range of forms and gradients of curvature. In 1988 the European Economic Community adopted a law that included new regulations for fruit and vegetables sold directly to the consmer. The law included a mathematical definition for the acceptable curvature in the highest class cucumber. This was intended as a way of stanardizing the contents of shipping crates, but an unintended consequnce of the law was that, for the purposes of retail, some cucumbers ceased to be cucumbers."
