The project started with this quote from Gaston Bachelard’s The Poetics of Space: “Fern ash dissolved in pure water which then evaporates, will turn into crystals shaped as fern fronds.” Together with the exhibition and installation two books, Filicology (2017) and Ferns (2017-2021), and a series of prints have been created.
