Activity
This creative session aimed to highlight the ancestral and divine bonds that humans have maintained with the plant world, led by Dr Lourdes Parra Lazcano, Dr Elizabeth Anderson and collage artist Jenny Hood. This event began with a short documentary that explores the role of plants in the practices of Mexican traditional healers, illuminating the spiritual, cultural, and medicinal dimensions of this relationship. Following the screening, participants engaged in a hands-on collage workshop using literary prompts and botanical images from the University of Aberdeen's library collection to reflect on our personal and collective connections with plants.| Period | 1 Oct 2025 |
