This exhibition explores the intersections between people and the
natural environment; delving into the complexity of humanity's
relationships with the landscape through the work of contemporary
artists who use living plants in their art. Rather than simply drawing
inspiration from the biosphere, these artists utilize plant matter as
their artistic media, incorporate natural growth processes to create
striking images, employ plants with pollutant-eliminating abilities in
interactive sculptures to create healthy social spaces, and even embrace
plants as active collaborators in their work.
This exhibition was curated by Lisa Tung, Director of Curatorial Programs.
