Anti-Plant

A piece created from non-organic materials that challenges the traditional role of plants in nature. Unlike real plants that produce oxygen and absorb CO2, this plant does the opposite: it takes in oxygen and releases CO2. The design consists of a ceramic root, a copper bloom, and a candle as the plant's "life force." As the candle burns oxygen, it generates heat that causes the bloom to spin, spreading CO2 into the air.
