Wearing nature reshaped by the digital is to stand at a threshold: matter and code, earth and abstraction. The digital holds meaning only when it deepens our roots in the living world.

The tangible is a threshold; the intangible is the breath that crosses it. In the wearable, matter and sign seek each other: the skin measures weight, thought opens the field. Not two worlds, but a single cadence: what is touched shapes what eludes, what eludes orients what is touched. To remain earthly is to accept this weave—roots in soil, gaze in the unseen, a step that unites.

Nature is translated, printed, and impressed onto a wearable canvas that declares connection: the body becomes the site where image and earth coincide. The image speaks a digital visual language—grids, pixels, vectors—yet the subjects remain evocatively natural, carrying leaf, stone, tide as living presences within the artifact.

The connection intensifies through direct action: a physical gesture in a world of rising virtuality. By framing the printed artifact with a smartphone, the piece reveals itself “with magic” only on the screen, underscoring the difference between digital and non-digital while marking their bond through manual intervention. The hand anchors the code; the device discloses the invisible; together they braid matter and apparition.
