Plant Cure

A plant may just relieve an itch, heal a sore or more than occasionally hold life and death within their aesthetically pleasing shapes. They may be palliatives to the ills of daily lives or ease us through our passing. To seek out nature’s healing properties within the plant world and transform it into the matter of art was the quest of the five selected Artists in Residence at The New York Academy of Medicine - C Bangs, Nancy Campbell, James Martin, Susan Rostow and Mary Ting.
