Whether living in forests, plains or deserts as nomads, or being in touch with vegetation in orchards, gardens and parks, we all experience a certain link to plants.

History provides many examples of the interruption of transmission chains, from rulers who regard the knowledge of healers and herbalists as sorcery, and ecosystems being threatened by anthropogenic destruction, to younger generations losing their connection to the land, its nonhuman inhabitants and their ancestors.

The predominant use of raw, non-polluting vegetal matter runs through several pieces, and in others a link emerges between the figure of the grandmother, or female ancestor, and her (great) grandchildren. The evidence of the power infused by plants in our daily lives jumps out at us \u2013 curators, artists and viewers. We found that in their materiality and form, and in their content, the new commissions \u2013 subconsciously, through our curatorial frame \u2013 became symbiotic fellows of the existing works. The different generations of artists enter into dialogue, and, despite coming from varied cultural contexts, manifest how the knowledge of plants transits through our bodies and our senses, without intermediaries, and stress how interconnected our human existence is with that of natural entities.

Public program<\/span><\/h3>\n

On August 12, MeetFactory hosted a special summer public program, Soir\u00e9e. Spread around the gallery and the artists’ studios, it revolved around the plant kingdom in echo to the exhibition Planted in the Body<\/em> and it included a tour of the show, an extension of it through the screening of the films Chillpiq<\/em> (2017) by Saodat Ismailova and Word for Forest<\/em> (2018) by Pia R\u00f6nicke. Furthermore, Soir\u00e9e hosted an artist talk with artist Corinne Silva that explored cultivation as a strategy of resistance and contemplated the matrilineal relationships and possibilities of cultivating the knowledge that a country offers. The event culminated with a sound performance by Alexandra Cihansk\u00e1 Machov\u00e1 and Steppe, a night walk with botanist Jan Albert \u0160turma for the smells and structures of thermophilic lawns above Zl\u00edchov.[\/vc_column_text]\t\n\t\tBROCHURE<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t[vc_empty_space height=”40px”]\t
