Kennedia macrophylla

ANU third year fabrication design project, 2023. Autoembroidery machine and laser cutter. 

This project reveals the unseen structures of leaf veins by extracting a photo of a native leaf on a lightbox, and converting it to an automated machine embroidery file. The files were run on dissolvable fabric. The outcomes combine to share the story of Kennedia macrophylla: a endangered species that is threatened by changing bushfire regimes which are becoming more frequent and severe under our changing climate.
