In a life landscape on the brink of transformation, I attempt to capture the bio-signals of the Ficus—a guardian of water, a source of food, a protector against erosion. This Botanical Archaeology is the result of anthotype, an ancient photographic process that transcends technology, recording the essence of plant existence.

Amidst disruptive development, this work stands as a reminder of the symphony between roots and water—a harmony threatened when we forget the origins of life itself. This is not merely a trace of a leaf; it is a blueprint of life under trial, a visual testament that asks:

Will we read these signals before the traces of life are erased by a civilization in too much of a hurry?
