Scope and content
Photographs of the video installation 'The Garden of Enlightenment' by Michael Petry starring Michael Cashman exhibited at the South London Gallery from 28 September to 30 October 1994. It was an interactive installation consisting of fibre optic cables, video, text, soundtrack and a suspended black cloth. The hidden speakers played a soundtrack composed by Gavin Greenaway and John Powell, and featuring the voice of Michael Cashman, best known for his role in Eastenders.
The main gallery space was split into two spaces: the front half was devoted to Petry's installation, the rear half featured an installation by Shaheen Merali.
