The exhibition Herbarium Seen & Dreamed explores how scientists, philosophers, writers, artists, and filmmakers have collected and represented plants, whether for scientific study or personal enjoyment, creating herbaria that range from the scientific to the poetic.

Through a multidisciplinary approach, the exhibition showcases the exploratory work of various botanists and artists.

In the contemplative space of the Barn, visitors are invited to discover the remarkable Grand Herbier d’Ombres / Grande herbário de sombras (1972) by Lourdes Castro (1930–2022), featured in the installation Je/Eux d’Ombres by artist Claudia Isabel Navas.
