These works depict native, invasive, and cultivated species of plants in a way that suggests our shared physicality. The value judgment I place on a chosen subject is aesthetic. I am not concerned if the plant itself is “good” or “bad”, just visually interesting. However, I understand each plant here plays a role in the biodiversity of its ecosystem just as humans do, and that role can either help or hurt. I complicate my understanding of plants and nature more broadly by literally recognizing myself within them.
