Mixing plants and animals, Keith Yurdana grafts plant material with animal skin resulting in objects that hover between scientific and grotesque. In blending the anatomies of different species, Yurdana starts with the original element and its function in nature. In Irrigation Methods, (Flora Grafts 34 + 35) roots become the skeleton and the circulatory system for these hybrid forms that are sheathed in meticulously applied animal skin. Botanical appendages protrude from various points to give each graft unique characteristics, and appear to be anomalies or mutations with a mysterious purpose.
