Four 5 feet x 8 feet photographs on canvas

With a botanist from nearby Regents Park, I collected leaves from indigenous trees in the park. The same technique that was used in my installation paraMuseum: Environmental Exigencies at Rice University was used here. Each leaf was scanned on a black background with high-resolution cameras, yielding a photograph that was enlarged to 5 x 8 feet resulting in an extremely detailed object, on a vertical field, of human scale, approximately 6 feet tall.
