Explore a vibrant tapestry of life! Step inside this immersive, sensory exhibition featuring spectacular rare and unusual tropical and subtropical rainforest plants.

Here, amidst a lush, layered canopy, you’ll experience the intricate beauty and complexity of the rainforest like never before.

Alchemy of a Rainforest is more than an exhibition; it’s an immersive journey that envelops you in the vibrant, living essence of one of the Earth’s most valuable ecosystems.

Throughout the space, garden sculptures by environmental artist Jane Gillings add vibrant pops of colour and texture. Crafted from repurposed plastic waste, these intricate pieces depict seeds, flowers, branches, fungi, and butterflies, highlighting the rainforest’s role as an ecological powerhouse that sustains diverse life forms.

A highlight of the exhibition is the oversized Satin Bowerbird’s bower, crafted from upcycled materials. This stunning installation invites you to walk through, sit, and be surrounded by the hum of rainforest sound art, transporting you to a tropical forest teeming with life.

Curated by the horticultural team at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, Alchemy of a Rainforest has over 18,000 plants on display and one of the largest living green walls in the Southern Hemisphere.

Join them in this immersive journey, where art, nature, and innovation come together to create an experience that is both spectacular and profoundly meaningful.
