The Plant Archive
Through the creation of a “de-anthropocentric” view of plants’ intelligence, in which the real and the unreal are intertwined, I intend to decentralize and reshape the world, thus to explore the fragility of the boundary between reality and illusion under human definition and the possibilities of using art to create actuality. Therefore, I have created a well-documented and logical “fictional” plant archive in order to contemplate the relationships and status of life. In this project, plants become mirrors of human beings, possessing same emotions and desires, and being able to communicate with humans on a completely equal footing. Ultimately, installation books are chosen for display to reflect the limitations and fragility of the human definition.
