Attractive Disturbance
Dhanny Sanjaya ‘Danot’, Tangerang, Indonesia
I remember how this plant at first grew little by little in my grass. Over the last two years, I witnessed how this plant almost dominated my entire front and back yard. Now, this plant no longer only grows in my yard, but is starting to penetrate the walls and floors of the house. I feel there is something beautiful but also annoying about this plant growing on the walls of the house. In recent years, my work has come close to environmental issues, and these observational photographs seem to remind us how nature will conquer anything, nature will reclaim its space, and will continue to survive any damage.
