A series of seven ceramic Seedlings, hybrid sculptures made from (my)body casts, planted them nearby the Icelandic flora exhibit in an attempt to become Iceland.

To enforce entanglement, I embedded an aluminium gall //
aluminium - a difficult material within the Icelandic historical and political context
gall - a tree's reaction to a parasitic organism, harvested in Slovakia //
in the ceramic sculpture.

The sculptures originated in longing for care and embrace //I can mother the copies of my body//, yet fell short by being cold, rigid, and unresponsive.

In the garden, I opted for projecting painful spots on my body
// head, belly, back, shoulder, right hip, right wrist, right knee,

I bow before you all //
as a map for installation.

Seedlings were exhibited during Epiphytes at the Reykjavík Botanical Garden.
