"Pray to Flowers – A Plot of Disalienation": Annalee Davis's Apothecary in Bait Al Hurma

from Eyes on · host Eyes on

Barbadian artist Annalee Davis grew up surrounded by trauma, anxiety and fear that was deeply rooted in the land, souls and minds of her people. With a turbulent history dealing with colonialism, slavery and the erasure of her culture, she decided on an act of rebellion: healing through plants. Annalee speaks about her apothecary that contained all kinds of plants such as lemongrass and cerasee, that she grew from scratch with Yeori Guépin for Sharjah Biennial 15. A place that allows people to slow down, recalibrate and drink tea.
