The work is composed of two halves. The upper half is a video wall of television screens, each tuned to a different channel and playing at low volume. The lower half is a garden of ferns that can survive under conditions of extreme lighting. The television screens provide light to the plants, which grow towards them in a constricted space, eventually colliding.

The work measures 2m x 2m x 1m, and is suspended from the ceiling by aircraft cabling. It is shown in darkness.
