Introduction

Persons as plants is about plants and person which is connection between plant and human characteristics.I’m inspiration by Francesca Woodman’s work self-portrait with tree roots.It’s actually a re-present,

So why did I choose plants? I would like to quote Takuma Nakahira’s view point:

For Nakahira, plants are uncanny, mysterious creatures. He sees in them transcendental beings that are removed from the world of seeming certainty, that carry the otherness of things within them, and that threaten the self with their silence. To him, plants with their autonomous growth imply an intermediate state that belongs neither to the subject nor to the object of perception.

By Masashi Kohara

In fact, plants and people have many common features like skin and texture.Different people correspond to different categories of plants.
