The project Botanical Evaluations speculatively investigates a pseudo science dedicated to plant pathology, creating a fictive system in which flora suffers from imaginary afflictions. Through a conceptual intersection of invented botanical drawings, speculative texts, false diagnoses, and fictional remedies, the project constructs an alternative reality. Sounds generated from dried plants, combined with digital synthesizer compositions, amplify the sense of absurdity, exploring how we mythologize the vegetal world and inscribe it into personal narratives, challenging the boundaries between reality, fiction, and memory.
