ENCOUNTERING PLANT MATTER THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHIC PRINT PRACTICES

Rebecca Mayo

doi:12

Abstract

This paper considers how photographically produced representations, made visible with plant dyes, offer material connections to actions, sites and species. I argue that using matter of the same site or species to make visible photographic imagery offers a further indexical relation between object and image. The synthesis of image and matter (through fast and reversible digital methods and the much slower processes and chemistry of natural dyeing) serve to perform histories and interactions between humans and nonhumans. In the instance of my work, I propose practices of care between human and non-human are revealed via evidence of the agency enacted between artist and matter, image and site in the finished printed textiles.
