The artist duo has created a garden in the mountain village of Tenna under the title “Ackergold” with 13 different potato varieties, herbs and flowers, which in the course of the summer develops into a total plant work of art. Furthermore, they invite you to rest on loungers in two places to rest yourself and your eyes: while in a secluded woodland you gently swaying in the treetops (“Waldschlaf “), one can enjoy an eyebright treatment in a hay barn and open one’s eyes to what lies beyond (“Augentrost “).
