SHARE
This is an exhibition of botanical artwork with a special focus on edible plants, held in cooperation with Britain’s Royal Botanical Gardens (the Kew Gardens). The exhibition will showcase botanical art that includes not only vegetables and fruits but foods that greatly changed the eating habits of British people, such as coffee, tea, herbs, and various spices. Anecdotes and information accompany the work on how said foods came to be incorporated as ingredients. There will also be displays of other materials related to food, such as old recipes and ceramics that decorated dinner tables, resulting in an exhibition that explores British history and culture through “delicious” botanical art.
