About the “Stories from Nature” student art exhibit
Over the course of a year, students engaged in a deep investigative process—visiting botanical gardens, observing changes in the environment, and documenting their discoveries. They recognized that much like people, each plant, flower, and tree are unique. They also explored the idea that plants have emotions, which can be seen in the way they grow, bend, and respond to their surroundings—just as human expressions reveal feelings and their identities.
The works on display are artifacts from this rich and ongoing exploration, offering a glimpse into the children’s evolving thoughts, discoveries, and creative interpretations of the natural world.
