London-based artist
Zadok Ben David
created this incredible installation using 12,000 cut steel botanical
specimens modeled from old textbook illustrations, each embedded in a
thin layer of sand. On first encountering the sprawling array of plants
they appear completely black, thus the installation’s title:
Blackfield.
However when viewed from the opposite side, a field of black turns into
a wall of color. I would love to encounter this first-hand. A circular
version of
Blackfield is currently on display at
Artclub 1563 in Seoul through February 2012. If you liked this, you’ll love Eiji Watanabe’s
paper butterflies. (via
