HIJA DE FLORES / DAUGHTER OF FLOWERS
The ECO Really Small Museum ATX, Austin, Texas
Exhibition Dates: May 1 - 31, 2024
Hija de flores / Daughter of flowers is an installation composed of floral DNA representations that investigate the concept of botanical wisdom, or the practice of slowly unearthing bits of inherited knowledge that have been passed down generations of women as tools for healing and survival.
This installation was the inaugural exhibition in the solar-powered @ReallySmallMuseum_atx, presented by artist Juliet Whitsett as part of TEMPO on the Trail! TEMPO is a temporary art exhibition on the Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail that is intended to cultivate curiosity, spark imagination, and encourage exploration of the City of Austin and is a partnership between The Trail Conservancy and The City of Austin’s Art in Public Places (AIPP).
