Description
An installation that transfers photographs of light onto plants
This installation was presented as the outcome of a one-month residency in Malaysia. Photographs taken in the jungle outside Kuala Lumpur were printed on washi paper and attached to locally growing fern leaves. By bringing Malaysian and Japanese mythologies together, the work spatializes the presence of light and the forest through the movement of the leaves.
