Zadok Ben David created this incredible installation using 12,000 cut steel botanical specimens modeled from old textbook illustrations, each embedded in a thin layer of sand. On first encountering the sprawling array of plants they appear completely black, thus the installation’s title: Blackfield. However when viewed from the opposite side, a field of black turns into a wall of color.

It took me a little while, but I looked at it and tried to understand it, and realized how amazing this is. It just reminds me of myself a little over a year ago. What I think is amazing or beautiful has changed so much. The category itself has expanded immensely. This, just in the color and the wonder and the time it took is just fantastic.
