These are extremely intricate structures that evoke both a multitude of natural elements related to the vegetable world, and a complex and layered artificiality. They call to mind branches, roots, moss, lichens, algae, as well as virtual re-elaborations of algorithms and differential equations, analysis diagrams, syntheses of digital signals.
