For the Bankstown Biennale

This project welcomes you to walk noticing how plants shape the ways we look at, feel about, and imagine Bankstown. It consists of six invitations to envisage the neighbourhood in more planty ways. Plants make our lives possible, and are central to crucial issues: climate breakdown, biodiversity loss, food production, pollution. Walking produces embodied ways of knowing, and affective dispositions towards our environment. In turn the way we perceive the environment influences the way we treat it. The Plantiness of Bankstown is a proposition to care for and make allies with plants in your daily life.
