Screening & Artist Talk - End of Residency

“What are the legacies of herbariums and Botanical Gardens? What happened to the systematic indexing of the world's plants by Western botanists from the mid-18th century onwards? Simples essais' attempts to map the colonisation of knowledge that gave rise to French botanical collections.”
