Jury Garden reflects on the legal mandate for a trial by jury with twelve large conical earthcast vessels mounted on twelve plinths, each similar but not identical, representing the twelve members of a jury. Red and white ornamental grasses grow in two distinct patterns around the jury figures, echoing the arguments for the defense and the prosecution.
