MASTER CLASS "BOTANICAL ENTANGLEMENTS" with BENNY NEMER
November 4-7, 2024
Whether staring into a flower, smelling its perfume, touching the textures of mosses and barks, tasting berries, seaweed, mushrooms and saffron, watching the dance of reeds and rushes in the wind or listening to the song of rustling leaves, botanical life offers us infinite sensations and affects upon which the human experience is dependent. For many of us, our attraction to, and engagement with flowers, plants, and trees is more elemental than intellectual, our intimacies with botanical life are central to the ways we live, think, and create. We turn to flowers to mediate human relations, to observe and understand the cycle of life, for inspiration on how to adorn ourselves, how to flirt, how to dance and how to wither and die. We see the true natures of our genders and sexualities in the polyform stamens and petals of flowers, a reflection of our kinship formations in the cruisy, meandering growth patterns of ivy and bougainvillea, of elm branches and gypsophila.
This Master Class will consider the ways as artists we can work with the botanical world as material and collaborators. We will create individual and collective artworks with and alongside botanical material, tuning into the vegetal world and seeking ways to invite them in collaboration. Ghent’s Botanical Gardens will donate plant matter for our experiments and collective creation.
