At a time when human mobility is reshaping territories and our collective imagination, the movement of plants reveals other stories of circulation, adaptation and coexistence. Bringing together works by twenty-three artists with transdisciplinary practices, this exhibition explores the complex links between migration, biological exchange, colonial legacies, ecological transformations and the dynamics of living organisms. Plants are presented here as agents of multiple trajectories, carried by the winds, animals, humans or glob
Echoing these plant movements, the works explore the conditions of human displacement, and the notions of rootedness, belonging, exile and transmission. Spanning art, the natural sciences, anthropology and ecology, the exhibition invites us to consider movement as relational processes that shape landscapes, cultures and ecosystems. It encourages us to explore new ways of paying attention to the interdependencies that link beings, territories and the temporalities of living things.
