Plants Out Of Place

Plants Out Of Place is a sensory event designed to engage the public on an experiential level to question our values and approaches to sustainable practices. Seeking to engage the public to reconsider the value of wild plants and how we may utilise them to design for a better future. As a contribution to overlooked plants, this project is a study of the personal characteristics and life of these plants. Unveiling lost knowledge and narratives to challenge our perceptions of these undesirable species and to facilitate the celebration of the unwanted and the unseen.
