Us and the plants

"The true revolution of photography lies not in its ability to generate images faithful to reality, but in revealing to us that plants are not mere objects. Filming a plant opens our minds to the existence of vegetal movements and responses to the stimuli of the world that occur at a speed imperceptible to us.”

“At the same time, being able to photograph the physiological responses of plants to external stimuli helps us discover how these organisms are interconnected with others and the environment they inhabit. Initiating symbiotic relationships and exchanges with microorganisms in the roots, actively defending against insects on the leaves, and flexibly responding to climatic stimuli, plants prove to be dynamic beings actively involved in the interconnected web of life.

What is a plant, and what relationships should we have with it today?"
