Future Fossil Flora is a publication dedicated to exploring the world of one flower per issue. We delve into the mutually curious relationship between humanity and flora, aiming to document how we see flowers in modern times, and indeed, how they see us. Inspired by traditional botanical illustrations and texts, we are focused on translating this concept to contemporary ways of studying and representing flowers.
