The time is finally here to announce that we will host our first international artists-in-residence with Studio Lemercier, co-directed by Joanie Lemercier, and Juliette Bibasse.

Studio Lemercier will be showing new and existing work across different mediums
including light installations at dusk, a videowork and plotter drawings corresponding to the garden's approach to reframing our perspective on the natural world.

Our Art Nights will run for four weekends from 19 July to 10August and merges art and interdisciplinary research with a series of installations, screenings, guided tours and thought-provoking in-conversation events.

These bring together artists and researchers to discuss the relationship between the ecological crisis, art, and aesthetics, our fascination with plants, and sustainable practices, amongst others.
