Phytosynthesis is a series of works that creates a visual dialogue between plants and digital: two worlds that are apparently distant, but mutually influencing.
Technology is used in the compositional process as a tool for reading and representing nature.
The subject of the composition is obtained through the processing, by a software developed specifically, of the photogrammetric scan of a plant.
Digital processing generates a visual restitution of the data of the three-dimensional scan, which tries to go beyond the photographed image through superimpositions and transparencies of millions of points; transfiguring the image of the flower into a set of cells, clouds of points that compose the subject.
The lines reveal the connections between the cells of the same or other plants, thus highlighting the system that characterizes them, a distributed and not centralized system like that of man. The restitution of these connections recalls the cosmos, the constellations, space. Plants, the engine of our plant, capable of transforming the energy of the sun into nutrients for life.
