Hortus

enclosed garden

I shot the black and white film I used for it in a sweltering greenhouse. It was a place I liked to visit in winter. I went in, wearing my wintercoat, accompanied by a layer of cold air.
Inside the warm moist air, I slowly felt my blood start to flow through my veins.
The air and the number of plants that surrounded me allowed me to see only green but I felt red.
