Maybe I’m Amazed

Knockdown Center, Maspeth, NY
October 30 - November 22, 2015

Maybe I’m Amazed was designed by Batty Langley in 1724 at Newgate Prison, and remained unrealized until today. Langley, a once well-respected designer of elaborate gardens, fell out of favor after he became fixated on ambitions for sustaining plant life in unearthly terrain that left him indebted and obsessed by interplanetary cultivation.


As his predictive theories heightened to fixation, his ambitions led to experimentations with new soil materials and magnetic drainage; manipulating light spectra, and the gravitational effects of various planetary systems. Although he died broke, Langley's books were enormously influential for George Washington’s Mount Vernon and other estates in Britain's American colonies.
