About the event
Mindful Garden: Fading Plants & Forgotten Words
This summer, I have been working with children aged 6–15 at World Museum , Ness Botanic Gardens and Eureka! Science + Discovery as part of my doctoral research, Tackling plant blindness through art-science public engagement Liverpool John Moores University.
Through creative workshops, participants explored medicinal plants, herbarium-making and forgotten nature words from The Lost Words by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris .
The project also includes a special collaboration with Liverpool Botanical Trust Liverpool Botanical Trust, exploring how we can conserve historical collections and knowledge through herbarium sheets.
I’m excited to share the work through a series of upcoming exhibitions:
