Abstract: This project focuses on how green curation, and the incorporation of natural elements such as plants, can be utilized in a decorative, aesthetic, and/or process oriented way within both an artist's practice and within exhibition spaces such as galleries and museums. The project focuses on the effects of light, humidity, and plants on both people, and the artworks and strives to find a balance which would allow for green curation to become a more viable option, both within the spaces of an artist's own gallery, in an experimental exhibition space, as well as under the strict preservation guidelines of a museum. Ideally, this project will bring to light potential solutions for each area in question, and offer ways in which green curation can expand and grow as a contemporary curatorial form, offering unique benefits and advantages when compared to others, such as salon style and white cube. This project is a combination of a research paper, exhibition plan, and artworks.
