Abstract or Description
Karel Miler’s Felt by Fresh Grass (1976) is a performance-photograph in which the artist lies down on a bank of grass, temporarily addressing the sensory world of the grass. This article invites a consideration of Miler’s work via theories of plant communication and intelligence, the photographic time of the camera as a medium, and the question of how it might contribute to an expanded ecological aesthetics.
