christophe guinet, aka mr. plant, aka monsieur plant has continued his quest to plantify everything. over the years, he’s made a batman mask made of bark, a macintosh classic with a bonsai bursting out of it, NIKEs and reeboks that no one will ever wear (but some will pay $1000s for). the function of these pieces are limited outside the lens of photography and well-lit shelves, but still there is something magic about them. his latest project, spintable, makes you wonder what different plants might be singing if only we could hear them.
I hear rhapsody in blue

these vintage turntables still spin, but instead of projecting gershwin’s rhapsody in blue, they simply turn a botanical world around and around. monsieur plant uses 100% natural, stabilized plants for his pieces — some of which are available for purchase on his website.
