Close-up images of colorful plants are projected onto four screens suspended in a dark gallery . The screen closest to the camera fills the left portion of the image and shows blurry , abstracted patches of magenta, blue, and green. Beads of water are visible on the surface of the projected image. The other screens are more in-focus and show branchlike leaves and stems, perhaps moss or a dif ferent kind of small plant. The screens are rectangular and taller than they are wide.
