Event Description

When we witness geometric patterns in botany, we witness it’s rhythm of growing. While trees move at a glacial pace, their subtle motion leaves behind a trail in the form of visual patterns. Witness these pattern

Just like tree rings reflect the fingerprint of seasons, each species grows in a rhythm that is imprinted in their body.

This Sunday come withness these patterns together as a dark room projector experience with geometry, sounds, and incense.

Fragrance Talks are intended to continue my tradition of mixing storytelling and fragrances, which generally happen outdoors. For the indoor experience, I’ve handpicked one incense stick for each talk along with a sonic storytelling experience.

The talk will go over

1. Fractals of arborisation or the Branching of trees

2. Fibbonacci sequence in leaves

3. Radial geometry of flowers

4. Spinning motion as a synchronised dance

The talk is conducted by Abhishek Khan, a research-based artist, designer, and storyteller under the pen name: Hand Jobs Inc. He runs Theatre of Botany / Lalbagh.info as a botanical story project in gardens of Bengaluru and Mumbai. As a designer, he designed the brand identity for General Items

I started Lalbagh.info website as a free public archive of Lal Bagh flowers. The website now hosts Flower Finder, and self-guided Fragrance Walk.
