Nature and Us
BOTANY and other stories creates projects that show our dependence on and affinity with nature.
Since it was created in 2017, the purpose of BOTANY and other stories has always been the same: to show that our lifestyles and their social and environmental consequences are destructive and responsible for what is known as ‘climate change’.
“But man is a part of nature and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself.”
The Cabinet of Curiosities
The Cabinet of Curiosities is a pop-up exhibition of books, artefacts, art and crafts showing our relationship with nature.
Pop-up Exhibitions
BOTANY and other stories has produced several pop-up exhibitions and events in Hay-on-Wye since 2018. From Green to The Colossal Critter to The Isle is Full of Noises, they all underline the connection between humans and nature.
The Cabbage Leaf
The Cabbage Leaf is a BOTANY and other stories free publication. It is like the weather: seasonal, unpredictable, changeable.
Botanical illustration
Addressing children through botanical art to show them that the beauty of our planet, more than ever, needs to be respected.
