Against Our Better Nature

Against our Better Nature is a series of prints created from 3D models of seeds I created in forests across three continents. The work explores themes of environmental loss and speculative futures as species are vanishing due to climate change. While it is well known that wild animal populations around the world have fallen dramatically, the situation is worse for plants. Scientists don't have the resources to effectively track plant loss. Some species which are now at risk of extinction have never been formally documented.

The opportunity to exhibit Against Our Better Nature, sharing it with various publics, is owed to several institutions. I would like to acknowledge the support of Cite Internationale des Arts and CILAS, the Center for Latin American Studies at UC San Diego, as well as researchers at the botanical gardens of Inhotim, and STRI, the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.
