One Hundred Aloe Plants is the artist book concluding Ashley Culver’s work as the Artist in the Library at the Albert Campbell branch of Toronto Public Library, which functions as an archive of the written responses describing where in their home the aloe vera plant will live from library guests along with a reprinting of the poster by Alicia Nauta. In her essay ‘Propagation and Portals’ included, Culver writes about the experience of growing the collection of one hundred aloe, interacting with library guests, and considering how we are connected.
