“Means of Reproduction No. 524.” Acer saccarinum (silver maple tree).
In “Means of Reproduction,” Svjetlana Tepavcevic presents a typology of the small and intricate seeds she found while walking through Southern California. Each seed is magnified through a scanning process that must be completed before the more fragile pods deteriorate. Tepavcevic explained via e-mail that this project is “driven by my own curiosity about the natural world, by my desire to learn more about it and to show what’s commonly ignored in a new, unfamiliar and surprising way.”
