Eight Dark Dreams of Green Leaves is a photography art book featuring black-and-white photographs from various projects.

Recent work is the outcome of a personal exploration into the mystical dimension of the natural world.

Using references to ecofeminism, these works aim to investigate the intersections between gender, ecology, activism and spirituality.
