Dependency [+ a charity print sale]

  • Indira Birnie

Dependency is an ongoing series that explores the unique symbiosis between greenhouses and the flora within; without the built structure, these plants would not be able to thrive and without the plants, the greenhouse would be rendered meaningless. With continuing concerns around the destruction of the natural world due to climate change, an ever-expanding global population and continuing industrialisation, this personal photography project explores an alternate world – a kind of utopia – where the natural and the man-made co-exist in harmony.

I'm also currently selling a selection of the photographs from this series as part of a charity print sale, with 50% of the proceeds going to two great environmental charities. I wrote more about it on my website: https://indirabirnie.com/notes/2020/7/30/hello-a-charity-print-sale
