A Guide to the Flora and Fauna of the World is an encyclopaedia of man-made nature, which catalogues curious creatures/life-forms that have evolved, in often unexpected ways, to cope with the ever-changing world altered by humankind.
The current edition is a limited edition hand-crafted archival box containing 55 plates, with documents and booklets pertaining to the project, as well as an opportunity to view the work through the artist’s perspective. The design/layout of the volume is a study in an unusual aesthetic, with a theme of ‘artificiality’ and ‘juxtaposition’.
