Urban Botanica explores the intersection between the natural world and the man-made environment through the use of overlapping and repetitive photographic transparencies. The interweaving of wattles and road markings creates a new reality, where the two appear to seamlessly merge into something new. This hybrid result is at once a celebration of the two worlds that exists at the corners of our city, whilst also contemplating the potential fragility of nature represented by the see-through silhouette of an endangered native orchid.
