ROEM - LEAVES LEFT

In the fall of 2023 Leiden-based art collective ROEM collaborated with Night of Discoveries and Days of ArtScience on a project called ‘Leaves Left’. Karl Karlas, Charlotte de Beus, Adri Peralta, Maaike van Everdingen and Sam Wilson Fletcher (all members of ROEM) have created a series of artworks—including installations, poetry, performance, film and audio—that draw on extensive research carried out by each artist in collaboration with Leiden’s Hortus Botanicus. Exploring themes of loss, displacement, death and renewal, these artworks elevate the ordinary—and distort it. We speak, and ecosystem memory is erased; dead leaves are seen to dance and breathe as they decay; beneath a green canopy, we feel at home—as thorns emerge from pores, and leaf-buds lift our fingernails... The framework of the glasshouse is exposed: with each of these artworks, we are reminded that nature is not ‘over there’.
