"Speaking about In my father’s garden, White says, “In May and June 2020 I spent time with my 87 year old father in his garden in the Strathbogie ranges in Victoria. This video captures this time. It represents the culmination of a lifelong relationship with my father and with his garden, that has been an inspiration for my artistic practice.” In my father’s garden was her first video work, a self-taught piece resulting from a City of Melbourne COVID-19 Quick Response Grant...
In my father’s garden is a poetic exploration of family, human connection, the impacts of COVID-19, creative expression, lifelong learning, and a love of gardens, and as such bridges the themes of Benalla’s most recent Collection exhibitions, Re-gathering and Re-generation."*
