One day, my aunt went into her garden, and angered by the nighttime raids of deer, placed a cage around her favourite hosta plant. The hosta grew thick and lush until its leaves curled around themselves and blocked the sunlight.
HOSTA (2024) is the study of a caged hosta, the cage serving not only as a subject of the work, but the structure holding the apparatus with which its long-exposure, pin- hole photographs were taken. Shot in extreme close-up, the hosta’s botanical forms invite comparisons with the human body, exploring the borderline between protec- tion and endangerment, intimacy and intrusivenss, trust and parnoia, self and other. The images in HOSTA were shot directly onto paper with a variety of handmade pinhole cameras and printed in a darkroom using hand-applied liquid photographic emulsion.
