“Garden ’82” studies what appears to be Elam’s Logan Square backyard, a locale frequently used in Elam’s work. The footage focuses on the space of the garden: sequencing together various vantage of the garden-the camera either fixed or panning steadily and slowly and concluding by taking note of the garden’s vegetation at an eye level and with increased camera movement.
