I’ll Hide in the Garden captures the feeling of retreating into a private, enclosed sanctuary. Beneath the broad leaves of a loquat tree, afternoon sunlight glows through the foliage, creating a space of shade, warmth and refuge set apart from the outside world.
The loquat tree (is-siġra tan-naspli) is a beloved fixture in Maltese domestic gardens, cherished for its large, sculptural leaves and sweet spring fruit. Often providing the first harvest of the season, it is a symbol of abundance and quiet protection. In this work, the tree’s dense canopy represents a natural boundary that offers a sense of safety and peace.
