SUMMARY:See like a Curator: Paper Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a curator-led guided walk of the exhibition Paper G
 ardens: Art\, Botany\, and Empire.\n\nBetween the 17th and 20th centuries\
 , the Indian subcontinent was the site of extensive botanical surveys unde
 r colonial rule. Plant collection and classification were closely tied to 
 imperial economic\, medical\, and political interests\, and botanical illu
 stration played a central role in this project. Bringing together a new an
 d historically significant collection of botanical art from this period\, 
 the exhibition draws on recent scholarship to recover the often uncredited
  identities and histories of the Indian artists who made them.\n\nShrey Ma
 urya\, curator of the exhibition and Research Director at Impart\, leads t
 his guided walk through the layered histories embedded in these artworks\,
  and their relevance to how we understand the natural world today.\n\n‘P
 aper Gardens’ marks the continuation of a sustained\, years-long collabo
 ration between MAP and Impart — an online platform fostering greater pub
 lic engagement with the art and cultural histories of South Asia.
