Gravitational Maps III






The Cosmology of a Flower is  an ongoing research project that engages with the idea that flowers are earthly reflections of celestial bodies. Inspired by the book The Life of Plants, from philosopher Emanuele Coccia, this project explores the visual and conceptual resemblance of flowers and stars, echoing their singular relationship, one mediated by light. This works acts as an imaginary and abstract map to the night sky, where shining bodies are circling around the center of a tree. The ripples and waves are sculpted in the wood using a CNC machine. Each tree slice is its own small cosmos of orbiting bodies and trajectory lines.
