Worlds exist in orchids

May 15, at 10:30 am

Ariel Spadari (SP) is a visual artist and curious about the botanical world. He invites us to notice the presence of Cattleya walkeriana—the queen-of-the-cerrado—in the palm trees of Inhotim and in the samples from the Botany Lab.

Observation, imagination and recording become tools for investigation and research to ask ourselves: are we really that different from plants?
