Phytography is a technique that makes it possible to create detailed images of botanical material on light sensitive emulsion. The images in Oxygen are made with tall blades of grass. An illusion of speed is created reminding the viewer of those classic shots taken through the windscreen of an automobile. A roadmovie beyond the human.
