What goes on, unseen, beneath the soil? A question that fascinates photographer Diana Scherer, whose work plays with constrained root formations. Growing plants in a variety of containers she exposes the plant's mechanisms for exploring every nook and cranny, searching for water and nutrients. Sometimes weaving fantastic, intricate patterns, sometimes forcing themselves into solid forms mirroring their constrictive containers, and sometimes creating unexpectedly chaotic forms, her work reminds you to consider the structures that are hidden yet vital.
