I thought that this piece was very interesting. It showed a projection of an everyday image, a plant, which would usually seem so normal except this plant had several transparent leaves with video images projecting inside of them. I liked the combination of nature and technology. I also liked the how I was viewing an image of nature that could be in a household or in the outdoors. The images being projected in some of the leaves seemed to be from someones house, like home movies, but you can only see small pieces so you had to connect each leaf to understand what the artist was showing. I loved that this piece of art was using technology to show life and nature. I also liked that there was a sound track that helped me piece together what the projected movies were.

I thought this piece was amazing. Afterr watching it for a while I was mesmorized by it. The name photosynthesis was really great...the transition from just one person in the video to many people and a lot going on was great. I was trying to connect the story at the same time I was picturing a plant going through photosynthesis. I really thought about the transitions of human life while watching this exhibit, it really triggered my mind to think deeply.
