Botanica Brasilis is a painting practice centred on cultivated plants and how they are encountered through memory, repetition, material process, and sustained attention.

Painting on suspended linen scrolls, Brazilian-born artist Cleidi Hearn revisits the same cultivated species across a series of works. Each piece evolves slowly through translucent layers of paint that appear and recede like a memory.

The practice considers cultivated plants as living forms shaped through long processes of human cultivation, where history remains present in their material existence.
