Meet the Artist: A Sense of Flora

Meet artist Daksha Patel on Manchester Museum’s Top Floor for the launch of the new installation ‘A Sense of Flora’.

This show explores the links between experiences and memories of diverse natural environments and plants, identity and the crucial role of plant biodiversity in food security. The centrepiece will be a large installation of prints, made by asylum seekers and refugees during workshops at the charity Rainbow Haven.

This will be an opportunity to meet Daksha and some of the participants for the opening of this temporary installation, which will run throughout August.

You can help us care for our collections and bring joy and inspiration to people in Manchester and beyond

As one of the UK’s largest university museums, we care for over 4.5 million objects, with an internationally-important collection spanning from Archaeology to Zoology, and nearly everything in between. We work with communities, support university students and schools in Manchester and beyond and we are a free, inclusive museum for all. But we need your help. Every object we care for, exhibition, school visit and community event comes at a cost, and you can help make the museum as ambitious and impactful as possible.
