For a long time, it was thought that only people could create works of art. But Almudena Romero shows us that plants are intelligent and creative too! They can create shapes and colours to adapt to their environment. For example, some plants create flowers with colours and patterns to attract insects, which then help them to reproduce by carrying their pollen.

With the help of scientists, Almudena Romero shows us how insects see plants. Insects see colours that are invisible to us, thanks to their very special eyes. It’s as if they live in a secret world, full of colours that we can’t see.

The Museum of Plant Art is not just about showing the beauty of nature. It encourages us to think of plants as partners in our world, with whom we must learn to live and cohabit. In this way, Almudena Romero suggests that we see plants as veritable artists who create all around us.
