Johanna Unzueta’s Gardens in Orbit has been reviewed by Hakim Bishara for Hyperallergic.

 

“Like flower petals greeting the light of dawn. Like butterfly wings made of steel mesh. Like a supernova explosion that happened 20,000 years ago but still looks like it’s on day one. Like beads containing seeds strung on cotton threads stretched over a green valley between two mountain peaks. Like water bubbles mingling at a bubble convention. Like a heart pumping out indigo-colored blood. Like portals lined with effervescent silk. Like natural pills that cure you of language.”
