The INSPIRATION for the 2024 Met Gala ‘The Garden of Time’ – by J.G. Ballard

Let’s explore the theme of the 2024 Met Gala from the root! 🌸 pun intended! JG Ballard’s ‘The Garden of Time’ Count Axel and his wife live a life of leisure in a magnificent villa, surrounded by a garden of crystal flowers. An angry and unruly army advances upon them. To keep the “approaching rabble” at bay, Axel must turn back time by plucking the crystalline flowers, one by one, until they are all gone, and there is no time left. So many way to approach this text! A reactionary might long for bygone eras, a visionary might see these two as luddites, resistant to change. We could look at the text as symbolic of colonialism, of technology, of progress, of savoire faire and art, futurism and historicism. This text is rich with resources for guests to draw from but sadly, we will probably just get florals…. What are some of the themes you’ve taken from the text? Xoxo Triple silver silver silver
