Many city dwellers spend their days surrounded by artificial structures, separated from the earth. Yet, if you look closely, new ecosystems have adapted to the urban environment—whether invasive species, self-propagating plants in roadside cracks, or organisms coexisting with concrete and plastic. This exhibition aims to revive our connection to the soil and awaken bodily senses by experiencing the artists’ works as 'seeds'—sparking roots and re-engaging with the physical world beneath the city.
