The Healing Power of Nature in Victorian Society

Join Dr Hardeep Dhindsa and Dr Bharti Parmar for a fascinating exploration of how nature shaped ideas of healing in Victorian society. Through the symbolic and medicinal meanings attached to flowers, plants, and stones, this talk will uncover the rich visual and cultural language through which Victorians understood health, emotion and restoration.  Location: The studio, Head towards the Pre-Raphaelite galleries.  This session is part of Healing Arts Birmingham (HABrum) is a week-long, city-wide event showing how arts, culture and heritage can improve health, wellbeing and social equity. The programme brings together community activity and professional practice from across Birmingham and the West Midlands. It showcases Birmingham’s creative sector while demonstrating the evidence and methods behind creative health.
