Resumé
The conference Cultivating Connections explores how we can reconnect with the plant world through art, science, and hands-on practice. It addresses the widespread human tendency to ignore or undervalue plants—a phenomenon known as “plant blindness”—and fosters new forms of attention, care, and dialogue around sustainable cultivation and ecological responsibility.
