Interconnections

Visual communication

Through their research, ecologists have found that trees in a forest aren’t competing for their nutrients but are in fact sharing them through their roots by communicating with mycelium (fungus). This network system is known as the ‘Wood Wide Web’ and is what inspired this project. I explored the visuals of fractal patterns found repeated in nature and paired them with poems and other pieces of text that explore the idea of natural connections. These explorations are displayed in a box to create a cohesive final outcome, taking the viewer on a thoughtful journey through the woods.
