'What is a weed? For writer Noëlle Janaczewska, the generally favoured definition of 'a plant growing in the wrong place' is only part of the story. Because if weeds themselves are complex and paradoxical, so too are our relationships with them. Taking her home suburb of Pyrmont in inner Sydney as a starting point to explore our interactions with weeds - on public and private land, in courtrooms kitchens, myth and fiction - Weeds etc is about weeds as products of culture and language as much as biology.'
