"Once upon a time, somewhere.
Plants have disappeared. Here, the word vegetal lost its meaning and only represents an old memory. It is now impossible to seat on the grass, go for a walk between the trees, take care of your flowers.
Well impossible, not really ...
There is still one place where we can appreciate the company of our herbaceous friends. This place is Plantasia, a lush museum room where the last traces of vegetable life are kept. Don’t worry, we have our valiant custodians who take care night and day and this since years ago,of this new revolutionary ecosystem.
100% Guaranteed Plastic."
​
As an contemporary ecological tale, Plantasia is about childhood, emancipation and the fear of the unknown, while raising essential ecological issues. Based on Mort Garson's album "Mother Earth's Plantasia", Grégoire Manhes imagines an absurd and poetic uchronic tale where natural rhymes with artificial.
