Freestanding metal panels are scattered across a dark gallery, with drawings and saturated abstract images mounted to them. A tinted window on the left emits a bright purple glow. Small banners hanging from the ceiling contain abstracted silhouettes of plants. Three video projections are visible in the background; the central one shows a close view of a thorny green plant.
