Pharmacopoeia : A Dungeness Notebook Paperback
“Refund was approved and back in my account the same day.” - Deliver+ customer
I planted a dog rose. Then I found a curious piece of driftwood and used this, and one of the necklaces of holey stones on the wall, to stake the rose. The garden had begun. I saw it as a therapy and a pharmacopoeia. In 1986 artist and filmmaker, Derek Jarman, bought Prospect Cottage, a Victorian fishermans hut on the desert sands of Dungeness. It was to be a home and refuge for Jarman throughout his HIV diagnosis, and it would provide the stage for one of his most enduring, if transitory projects his garden. Conceived of as a pharmacopoeia an everevolving circle of stones, plants and flotsam sculptures all built and grown in spite of the bracing winds and arid shingle it remains today a site of fascination and wonder.Pharmacopoeia brings together the best of Derek Jarmans writing on nature, gardening and Prospect Cottage. Told through journal entries, poems and fragments of prose, it paints a portrait of Jarmans personal and artistic reliance on the space Dungeness offered him, and shows the cycle of the years spent there in one moving collage.[Derek] made of this wee house, his wooden tent pitched in the wilderness, an artwork and out of its shingle skirts, an ingenious garden now internationally recognised. But, first and foremost, the cottage was always a living thing, a practical toolbox for his work Tilda Swinton, from her Foreword
