Binh Danh


"Danh has invented a technique for printing found photographs (digitally rendered into negatives) onto the surface of leaves by exploiting the natural process of photosynthesis. The leaves, still living, are pressed between glass plates with the negative and exposed to sunlight from a week to several months. Coined 'chlorophyll prints' by the artist, the fragile works are encapsulated and made permanent through casting them in solid blocks of resin."

This is one of the coolest things I've ever heard of! I'd love to see them in person.
