exploring nature/plants via speculative game screenshots via the 'organic metaverse' series; through photo art pieces to represent natural power, enhancement, strangeness; the inspirational (and expressive) structures...

a 'money tree' or pachira aquatica is said to bring positive 'chi' and financial good fortune into a home. so there's something about the obsessive quality of art and money; power; energy.

i still love 'finding' the long stems in these plants like bridges across death, towards new leaves of life, spreading out... imagining video games of play and interaction.

this image not only ties in with some progress on the larger collection (available via opensea, on polygon) but also with a piece i made for Async.art dynamic NFT marketplace called 'A Money Tree from the Cedar Tavern'. It changes every hour over a 24 hour period and attempts to explore the matrix of a single potted money tree. it aimed to be another strong symbol of how renewed green insight and respect could herald great fortune for those truly 'looking' carefully and ahead...

this high-res 1/1 image is one of these (unused) 'blueprint' studies.
be lost to its world.
