Overview

  • Representing the convergent sites where natural history encountered the development of human society, Janet Laurence’s practice demonstrates the intricate network among human beings and natural creatures as well as the efforts we should make to maintain the balance. In this talk, Laurence and Chang Wan-chen, the curator of Laurence’s solo exhibition ‘Entangled Garden for Plant Memory’ in 2020, will explore this sensitive landscape of nature through both scientific and artistic engagements.


    These projects adopted a museological view to generate interconnected narratives of natural history including specimens of plants, birds, minerals and fungi. By building an immersive habitat, Laurence’s practice scopes the sensation of nature, demonstrating the relationship among different natural lives on this planet and their interactions with the humanities.
