The Global Garden: Science, Art and Writing Workshop
Fri 30 Jun 2017 to Fri 30 Jun 2017
This Science, Art and Writing workshop presents an opportunity for scientists, artists and writers to break down the barriers between art and science, by coming together to inform and inspire each other through creative writing and art
Plants produce a stunning array of chemicals, many of which are valuable natural products used by humans. Some of the most interesting plant species are found in remote locations across the globe where often indigenous people have a long standing relationship with the natural products they produce.
The workshop will begin with real plant case studies and a discussion of the aims of scientists in using them. Harnessing these scientific ideas and images, participants will then be invited to give their personal response to the relationship between plants, chemicals and people through poetry and collaborative art. The resulting work will then be used by academics for further research in the field.
