landscape architecture and public art
Architecture Center Houston is proud to announce the exhibition Verdant Laboratory by Falon Mihalic opening Thursday, June 12, 5:30-7:30pm, and continuing through August 22, 2025.
Verdant Laboratory transforms the gallery into a speculative ecology—part science lab, part art installation—that tells the story of Houston’s wild and often overlooked landscapes.
Through large-scale mixed media drawings, sculptures, and a video projection, Mihalic explores the living systems that form Houston’s foundation. Houston is not just a city built on bayous—it is a bayou. Situated at the intersection of the Galveston Bay estuary and coastal prairie, Houston exists within a dynamic and powerful web of water, soil, and biodiversity.
