“Nothing is constant but change! All existence is a perpetual flux of ‘being and becoming!’ That is the broad lesson of the evolution of the world."  Ernst Heinrich Haeckel.

​The delicate decaying leaf structures create a tapestry of the fractal-like patterns evocative of cellular forms and planetary systems. This animation reflects on the cyclical nature of life and processes of evolution. Through successive generations and the varying rhythms of growth, a new form of life, a new being, is created only to return to its origin.
