Dear Spectrites
A New Year and a New Article in the Trust Me, I'm an Artist
Series.
This is the article by Spela Petric : "Trust Me I'm An
Artis: The Conundrum of Plant Life.
"Skotopoiesis" is the first event from the series
"Confronting Vegetal Otherness" within which artist Spela
Petric explores novel plant-human relationships beyond the
limits of empathy, interfaces and language. This 19-hour
performance was an attempt at intercognition with
germinating cress, using her body's shadow as a sign of
human presence. This work challenges the ethics of including
plant life in artworks as well as to assess our attitude
towards plants in general.
