Weeds: Fractured Landscapes
Weeds: Fractured Landscapes explores the relationship between invasive and native species, breaking the boundary of strict geometry and responding to the patterns and structures of phenomenon in nature’s systems. This work reflects upon phenomenon such as atmospheric conditions, swarm intelligence, and redundancy theory, which argues that pattern has the paradoxical proclivity for creating newness out of consistency, with repetition as a primary means. These organizing principles form Nature’s visual language, a language we can perceive only with our eyes and understand only abstractly, leaving our time-bound senses out of sync with Nature’s lived experience.
