This fourth in a series of illustrated lectures sponsored by The Gardens Trust on May 3 at 1 pm Eastern time will explore the impact and legacy of empire, colonialism and enslavement on western garden and landscape history. Our aim is to bring back some of the voices usually absent from this history, to identify and fill gaps in our collective knowledge, and to explore new ways of engaging with the whole history of gardens, landscapes and horticulture.
Ingrid Pollard will discuss aspects of her social practice, which is concerned with representation, history and landscape with reference to race, difference and the materiality of lens based media.
The ticket is for this individual session costs £5, and you may purchase tickets from Eventbrite via the link here.
Attendees will be sent a Zoom link 2 days prior to the start of the talk, and a link to the recorded session (available for 1 week) will be sent shortly afterwards.
