Field Notes

by Seraphina Sol for Seraphina Sol

Field Notes is a conservation focused project that illustrates the often overlooked details of nature, highlighting native plants and moths from remote regions. Each specimen is carefully observed and documented under magnification, capturing everything from the veins of a leaf to the patterns of a moth's wings. Traditional scientific drawing methods are used to record the specimens, then digitally refined to enhance depth and clarity. Inspired by the precision of natural history museums, the project offers a close-up perspective of these specimens and their role in the environment.
