Travelling Plants is a transdisciplinary project curated by Lina Vincent and led by Goethe-Institut Chennai, in collaboration with Alliance Française of Madras and Institut Français de Pondichéry (IFP).

A multiphase project commenced with a residency at IFP followed by a series of exhibitions across India and Sri Lanka, Travelling Plants brings together five visual and research-based artists Karolina Grzywnowicz (Germany), Wendy Therméa (Reunion Island, France), Danushka Marasinghe (Sri Lanka), Waylon D’souza (India) and Rashmimala (India) selected on the basis on their artistic practices intersecting with the natural world.

Since Travelling Plants opened in Chennai it has been travelling to various locations across South Asia, and it will be in New Delhi for a showing at the FICA Reading Room in September 2025.

The exhibition is accompanied by an exciting side programme, featuring a symposium, workshop, foraging walk and more.
