In the Garden: Giggles in the Greenery Launch Party

Gosh! is pleased to announce the launch party for In the Garden: Giggles in the Greenery, a new independent anthology exploring humans relationship with plants on the Wednesday 9th October 2024, from 7-9pm. They'll also be screening a short animated movie too! Joining us will be artist and editor Dominica Harrison, as well as Kim Noce and Ben Thompson. Here’s what Dominca Harrison has to say about the publication:

‘ITG’ is the inaugural book of the graphic anthology ‘Anima Mundi’, exploring interspecies communication between humans, plants, fungi, and minerals. ‘In The Garden’ specifically explores entheogenic plants and their potential to expand consciousness. Every plant featured in the book has a rich history of medicinal use, acting as guides, helpers, and teachers for those seeking knowledge.

There are 12 plants featured in the book, each researched and addressed through narrative illustration and animation by 12 different artists: Yu Sun, Andy Alexander, Kim Noce, Ben Thompson, Sofya Baychuk, Ala Nunu, Dal Park, Chris Rainbow, Mo Riza, Eleanor Mulhearn, Anna Firth and Dominica Harrison.

The launch party for In the Garden will be on Wednesday 9th October, from 7pm. You can also pre-order a copy of the anthology for mail-order or collection by clicking the link here.
