Yvanna Greene: The Bee and the Plant
Bray, Co. Wicklow
16 August 2025
Family friendly
Free to visit
Pollinators are at risk. Bumblebees are in danger. Food security is under threat. The Bee and the Plant is a performance-lecture devised by artist Yvanna Greene. This event is part of the Composting Colonialism exhibition: Towards the Radical Garden.

It tells the tale of a unique symbiotic relationship between Bombus purpura, a new species of bumblebee, and Rhododendron Ponticum, the popular but invasive ornamental shrub that proliferates around Ireland.

This is a story of rapid evolution leading to a future that is sure to satisfy all interested parties and guarantee tomatoes on supermarket shelves in each and every season.

Free event, booking essential.
