Following on from "Sur-Natures" and "Fractal Flowers", "Trans-Nature" presents a new generation of oversized artificial plants and flowers. "Trans-Natures" poetically explores the link between nature and artifice. Following an approach initiated at the end of the 90s, this creation is based on the observation of the plant kingdom and its imaginary transposition into the digital universe. This artificial nature, whose shapes are reminiscent of undergrowth, combines different species of trees, shrubs, twigs and foliage. Its development and forms are inspired by arborescences, systems for organising data using the principle of roots and branches. This nature, with its sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract forms, is infinitely generative. Plants are born randomly, blossom and die according to different "morphogenetic codes". The garden is constantly renewing and metamorphosing. Fluid plant forms unfurl their curves, while trees of sharp branches grow relentlessly and sometimes seem to pop out of the screen. Some plants grow gigantic, others fade into the background like swarms of pollinating flowers, while others disappear into the distance like fireworks. Foliage, thorny flowers and unfurling arborescences swirl and intertwine in a mysterious ballet of plant life that evaporates into the distance.
