About "Floating seeds"
by Margot van den Berg
About the artwork
The seed pod of the silk plant Moby Dick (Asclepias physocarpa 'Moby Dick') starts out round and dense. It is light green and has thin hairs scattered over the surface.
As it matures, the seed pod dries out as the seeds get ready to fly out. Slowly, the seed pod cracks open to reveal the seeds inside it.
Those seeds are attached to a ridge in the box. They sit close together and slowly unfold. The white hairs attached to the brown seed detach themselves from each other, setting off from the seed box. And the further they set up, the looser they sit. Until each thunder-brown seed detaches and floats away on the white hairs.
The branches with seeds stood in my living room and I watched the ripening process with amazement. I had no idea how beautiful it was and how every day the seed pod with seeds looked different. It was a beautiful process which was so slow that I saw no movement, but which was overtly slow towards the seeds flying out. Magical.
In the picture, three seeds that were still just attached to each other before flying off.
