Praying to the Gods

by Persephenie

 In Praying to the Gods, artist Persephenie approaches plants and the natural world as living deities, encountered through scent, awareness, and physical proximity.

 By positioning viewers to lower themselves in order to engage, the work stages devotion as an embodied act, suggesting reverence for plants, the universe, and the cycles of life and death as a way to reshape our relationship to the world we inhabit.

Opening: Saturday March 28, 2026
