Description
After a summer full of picking, recipes, meetings and two weeks of work, the aromatic sculpture “Maman la plus belle” was born, imagined by the artist Ju Hyun Lee, on the Place de l’Europe in Planoise!
It is with the association aaaaaa and within the framework of the Festival of the ecological solutions proposed by the Region Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, that we inaugurated “Maman la plus belle”, a self-fertilizing aromatic sculpture, on Friday September 10, 2021.
“Maman la plus belle” offers the following aromatic plants:
→ thyme
→ chives
→ parsley
→ tarragon
→ mint
→ rosemary
All of them can be used for collective workshops with Ju Hyun Lee and during neighborhood events.
This is the first step before the composting function of the sculpture is put into operation, which will constantly evolve until 2023!
