Pollinator Pathmaker at Southbank Centre: free guide
Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg reverses normal garden design: an algorithm selects planting for bees, butterflies and beetles rather than for human taste.
What you will experience
A colourful digital artwork lets visitors encounter planting from the perspective of pollinating insects.
The underlying system was developed with horticulturalists, pollinator experts and a computer scientist.

Dates and place
Southbank Centre lists the work from Friday 11 to Sunday 13 September, 11:00–22:00, on Riverside Terrace, Level 2.
The film element lasts about 15 minutes.
Who it suits
The installation is free, unticketed and listed for all ages.
Under-12s must be accompanied by an adult on the Southbank Centre site.
Turn the idea into action
The project’s wider tool can generate a planting scheme for a home, school or community space.
Treat the visit as a prompt to compare conditions and pollinator needs, not a generic garden aesthetic.
Plan the visit
The terrace is outdoors.
Check weather, the venue’s live access information and TfL before travelling; combine it with one nearby installation to avoid unnecessary cross-city transfers.
