This photographic series reveals the nocturnal life of plants, capturing subtle interspecies interactions through full-spectrum photography and UV fluorescence. Produced in 2022 along the Tambopata River in Peru’s Madre de Dios region, and in 2024 in the Colombian Putumayo. The series explores how plants sense, signal, and shape their environments at night. In landscapes affected by mining and deforestation, medicinal plants like Brugmansia re-emerge as plant teachers, offering insights into ecological intelligence, plant-led remediation, and new forms of worlding rooted in mutual care and resilience.
