Digital Collage, 2023
A recreation of my beloved Venus Fly Trap, composed of pixels within a denomination of 2160, utilising gradients of colours derived from Wada Sanzo. This inert, patient, but deadly predator photosynthesizes in its own right, subsidising its nutrient intake from the bodies of unsuspecting insects.
Operating in a state of complete autarky, diversifying its means to survive, occupying otherwise treacherous conditions in the wetlands of North and South Carolina, contributing its iconic silhouette and flora to our ecosystem. This species reminds me that we have much to learn from the simplest of organisms.
