This collection of moving images and prints represent a digital herbarium. As moving images, the objects come in and out of being. Light and airy, they are as temporal as the objects themselves. The 2-D prints are compressed images, a digital process analogous to the pressing of flowers. The paper itself becomes the specimen or artifact.
