Found Flora

In Found Flora, Ventura uses a micro lens iPhone attachment and digital editing to examine plant life at an intimate scale, revealing intricate structures often overlooked by the naked eye. Created in 2022, the series pushes the limits of smartphone photography—embracing its constraints while enhancing detail, color, and form through post-editing techniques. With dramatic framing, selective focus, and precise tonal adjustments, Found Flora invites close inspection and reverence for the hidden complexities of the botanical world.
