How can you play the sorcerers
apprentice in a garden?
This apparently ordinary vegetable garden offers a comical perspective of
genetically modified organisms. At the entrance, maize stands to welcome us
as a symbol of the debate.
After a few rows of innocuous vegetables, we come to a surprising garden shed
where instead of hoeing and digging tools, we find test tubes, distilling
equipment and pipettes.
At this pint the vegetable patch goes from silly to frankly bizarre: egg colocynth,
haemoglobin tomatoes, salt celery, a sausage tree
Mummy, do plastic
sacks really grow on trees?
