Botanical Photography from the 19th Century to Today  

 

Artist, writer, and curator Shelley Kirkwood presents a captivating talk tracing the evolution of botanical photography from its 19th-century origins to the early 21st century. Drawing from her own hybrid practice, Kirkwood sheds light on the techniques, stories, and images that have shaped our understanding of plants through the photographic lens.

Join us for a visually rich journey exploring how artists have used the camera to interpret the natural world—from delicate anthotypes and collodion plates to striking large-format color works and modern digital composites. Perfect for photography lovers, plant enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the enduring connection between art and nature.
