Narrative

I worked with plants gathered from the streets of Lisboa, particularly those growing in spaces shaped by human movement and neglect. I am interested in what these plants reveal about place, time, and the conditions that allow life to persist.

Using plant-based and light-sensitive processes such as chlorophyll printing, cyanotype on glass, and moving image, these methods emphasise slowness, exposure, and change, allowing natural processes to leave visible traces.

The plants I work with are often overlooked or removed without notice. By spending time with them through making, the work invites closer attention to forms of life that adapt to altered environments and to the quiet relationships between human activity and the more-than-human world.
