BOOK TICKETS

Can plants communicate? What would they say if they could speak?

Discover the hidden language of plants as you explore Celestial Gardens in this Adelaide Fringe event.

Celestial Gardens features a large-scale interactive plant music installation. With a chorus of 10 singing plants, it utilises technology to translate biodata to music.

Housed in the awe-inspiring venue of the Bicentennial Conservatory, the experiential installation aims to assist in starting a dialogue necessary to re-establish a balanced relationship between humanity and the greater environment by giving nature the voice to speak.

Celestial Gardens is a transcendent experience of deep listening and reconnection. You will wander through the rainforest communicating with the plants as:

• they respond to you through movement and touch
• you journey through pathways of light, vivid colour, aural art and
• you explore the enchanted rainforest as it sings a symphony of super-nature.

This exciting event also hosts an exclusive line-up of special guest artists presenting their work, including the award-winning virtual reality fairy tale Otanical by the celebrated art-technology innovators at Felicity Arts.

Be rejuvenated as you bathe in the healing vibes of nature, allowing the plants to give you your own unique sound bath experience.
