Forest Bathing is a group exhibition curated by Alex Santana, using the Ely Center’s 2024 Open Call to find the included artists.

"Mirroring the expansiveness of the forest, much like underground mycelial networks and rhizomatic plant stems, as a practice, forest bathing otters us an entry point for interspecies communication, understanding, and reciprocity.”

—From Curator Alex Santana’s exhibition text, Fall 2024.
