Seedy

A packet of seeds free with a magazine. Stuck to cover so that in trying to free them it rips the packet spilling the tiny dusts of life onto the carpet.

A burst of the vacuum and nature is back in its place, a bag. But not all. Underneath the sofa a germination. Hidden in the dark the plant grows strong before making a break for the light.


Wrapping around a leg for support it climbs up and secures its tendrils against the body. Drawing its moisture and food from the host the plant grows big before dropping its seeds to the carpet below and falling upon the cover of the magazine ‘Country Life’.
