SUMMARY:Paper Gardens: Deaf-led
DESCRIPTION:Experience Paper Gardens: Art\, Botany and Empire through a Dea
 f-led walkthrough that reimagines how we engage with botanical art.\n\nThi
 s guided tour invites Deaf audiences to engage with the exhibition’s exp
 loration of botanical illustrations created in India between the 17th and 
 19th centuries\, and the complex histories of colonialism\, labour\, and k
 nowledge embedded within them. These works were not merely aesthetic studi
 es of plants\, but part of a larger scientific project that documented nat
 ive species for their potential medicinal and commercial value within impe
 rial economies. \n\nLed by Akanksha Kamble from the MAP team \, the walkt
 hrough offers an inclusive\, visual-first encounter with the exhibition\, 
 opening up conversations around art and ecology.\n\nThis programme is in c
 onjunction with the ongoing exhibition\, Paper Gardens: Art Botany and Emp
 ire.\n\n‘Paper Gardens’ marks the continuation of a sustained\, years-
 long collaboration between MAP and Impart — an online platform fostering
  greater public engagement with the art and cultural histories of South As
 ia.
