Abstract or Description

This roundtable discussion brought together participants from the Encounters Over Several Plants programme and invited guests to reflect on technology, knowledge and ways of being connected to the lives and processes of plants.

The ways in which plants, both real and imagined, remembered and present, have informed the filmmaking practices of Adham Faramawy, Kent Chan and Lawrence Lek were highlighted. Artist Annalee Davis’s cultural instigations around her Barbados-based studio in a former sugar cane plantation rooted the conversation in present social ecologies. Counter Encounters, the curators of this series, shared their programming choices and future research pursuits.
