Plunge

UV print on aluminium platte, 50x50 cm, 2025

Plunge traces a collision between botanical memory and digital velocity. A slow, almost indistinct image of a plant-filled environment is stretched into a field of radial streaks, as if the spatial order of the scene were being rewritten from the perspective of another axis—one that belongs less to the human eye than to photosynthetic time, data streams, or neural discharge. The original depth of field collapses into a tunnel of motion, where background, foreground, and horizon are reconfigured into a single directional force.

The aluminium plate functions as a cold, conductive ground for this event: a metallic support that recalls both photographic emulsion and electronic circuitry. Light appears not as a neutral condition for seeing but as matter in transit, a swarm of trajectories marking an imaginary plunge into vegetal and technological entanglement. Within this moment of acceleration, Plunge speculates on what it might mean for plant-based environments, archival images and digital processing to share one continuous surface of impact—where memory, speed, and more-than-human perception briefly occupy the same line of flight.
