This video-essay delves into our complex relationship with plants, examining how we transform and domesticate nature—from vast greenhouses and large-scale farms to reforested landscapes and virtual garden centers. Created by merging current research with insights from 'Histoires de serres', an exhibition curated by Studio d-o-t-s in Salouvre, Luxembourg, the project invites viewers to rethink the place of plants in human environments. It draws on influential thinkers like Stefano Mancuso, Donna Haraway, and Bruno Latour, each challenging the view of plants as passive entities. Mancuso’s work highlights plants’ intelligence and adaptability, Haraway’s concept of "sympoiesis" underscores human-plant interdependence, and Latour’s ideas encourage us to see plants as active agents within ecological and social systems.

Through these perspectives and visual narratives of controlled environments, the video questions whether we are genuinely coexisting with plants or merely imposing restrictive frameworks. Featuring an original score by Carlos Martínez, the essay fosters a more mindful, reciprocal connection with the vegetal world, sparking curiosity and respect for the often-overlooked complexities of plant life.
