Brazilian visual artist Leo Coimbra grew vegetables in glass jars. When she visited Portugal nine years ago, she watched a documentary of a Portuguese painter Lourdes Castro who similarly grew vegetables in jars. “She would then put them inside the cabinets so that the roots can grow faster when the plant looks for light. I found that to be very poetic,” Ms Coimbra says.
Coimbra now incorporates glass jars for her installation art exhibition, which opened on December 1 and runs for the entire month at Creative Gallery, Nairobi National Museum.
