Out now! Veil of Nature, by Justine Blau in K. Verlag’s Processing Process series.

Artist Justine Blau delves into the mysteries of de-extinction through the lens of Sicyos villosus, a plant once endemic to the Galapagos and collected by Charles Darwin, now known only from a single preserved specimen. Blau’s artistic journey, from herbaria and seed banks to the Galapagos Islands, uncovers the contradictions within modern scientific conservation. As she explores the desire to bring species back to life, her work challenges the rational ambitions of science, revealing nature’s elusive and enigmatic potency.
