Whether they are indicators of global warming, resources for the pharmaceutical industry, Tik Tok trends or embodiments of sustainable food, plants in our contemporary societies reflect complex and often paradoxical relationships between humans and the natural world. Source of scientific knowledge, product of a globalised market or object of decoration, they are in this exhibition the subject of multiple investigations by artists, ranging from documentary work to speculative or experimental forms, in an attempt to grasp their multiple cultural meanings.
Through a wide variety of works, ranging from personal narratives to scientific documentation, virtual exploration and archival images, this exhibition aims to acknowledge the multiple meanings of the plant world in today's cultural context, while investigating the multiple forms that these can take for artists.
