Shot in Brooklyn, NY, this short video follows me from the street to the studio to the page as I create watercolor paint from the tough, weedy plants who green urban and disturbed habitats. It offers a rumination on the process, product and implications of my ongoing Feral and Invasive Pigments project, considering how migrant plants and people interact in cosmopolitan habitats.
