Plant Power is all about how plant lives and ours interconnect. Artists who are concerned about plants in a time of climate change are finding ways to give us new intense images. Through the power of art, this is an exhibition which aims to consider the plant point of view. Plants are not merely a backdrop but take centre stage.GroundWork Gallery

UKDeborah Gardner practices as an innovative sculptor, creating imaginative, exploring vibrant and visceral assemblages, often using waste products. For Plant Power she is contributing an installation of imagined, invasive plant species, which will emerge from the top of the gallery and creep downstairs via the stairwell. Her work is process and materially led, inspired by such things as the vibrancy of cell, plant and geological structures,and, and imagined future environments. She also has half an eye to eccentric sources, ranging from Gothic Plant Horror and Sci-Fi literature films and comics to waste dumps.Deborah Gardner has a continuum of art and science collaborations. Recent projects have been supported by the Royal Society of Chemistry, Pint of Science Creative Reactions, the Zoological Society of London and the Integrated Biological Imaging Network (KCL) and have explored shared methods and processes in art and science research practice. Most recent work considers imagined plant life in future biospheres and our shifting relationship with plants. https://www.groundworkgallery.com/exhibition/plant-power
