When Would You Like to Turn into a Pumpkin?
50 Sims Ave., Valley, Providence
In When Would You Like to Turn Into a Pumpkin?, you are a pumpkin unmoored in space and time. You are in Aotearoa, East Anglia, Napa Valley, and Oaxaca. It is 7153 B.C., 1277, 2116, and 2005. You are a seed, a scent, a blossom, a prizewinner, a Jack O’Lantern, and rot.
In this interactive, kid-friendly work of speculative plant studies, the wife-and-wife artist team of Cara and Lilia invite you to follow the journey of a plant that has shaped and been shaped by humans.
