​Botanicals: A Botanical Art Worldwide Exhibition 2025

Generator Gallery, Belconnen Arts Centre
28 March – 18 May 2025

The second Botanical Art Worldwide Project will focus on and celebrate biodiversity in the crops that have been closely associated with the human species over thousands of years. The theme is designed to draw attention to the vast variety of food and useful plants available, in contrast with the relatively few varieties currently used in mass cultivation. Plants eligible for inclusion are those cultivated for food, textiles, building, energy, and medicine. More information can be found here.
