Becoming a flower? As the upheaval of ecosystems and the climate leads us to rethink our relationship with nature and the living world, what can we learn from flowers, their resilience, their constant adaptation to their environment, their sobriety?
Through the eyes of artists, women and men of twenty different nationalities, becoming a flower attempts to shed new and sensitive light on current ecological, anthropological, and geopolitical issues. This book describes the forms of listening and attention that artists have maintained with plants since the 1960s and brings to light a botany of world history.
