Gardening at Zoumboulakis Gallery
Take a rousing virtual stroll around Athens in Springtime and explore the various species of plants we’ve nurtured in our living rooms during lockdown, as The Zoumboulakis gallery creates the city’s first indoor botanical garden exhibition.
Zoumboulakis Gallery taps into the creativity that blossomed through our limbo-lockdown year to create an indoor botanical garden in the heart of the city centre. A surreal approach to the current reality in Athens and the winter that never came.
