Flora is defined as all the plants of a particular place or time. Initially inspired by the gender-fluid Chinese traditional fashion of zanhua (簪花) or flower-adorning, “Flora, Luna-Corona” explores how floras function as cultural knowledge transcending the boundaries of binary, gender, geography, and time.
The physical exhibition is currently showing at the Gibson House Museum, North York: Jun 23 - Oct 1, 2023
“Flora, Luna-Corona” was initiated as a part of the Toronto History Museums’ Artist Mentorship Showcase: Pride with Mentor Ashley Mckenzie-Barnes. Experience a range of art projects at 10 history museum sites featuring emerging and mid-career artists from the 2SLGBTQ+ community.
