Joy Herro’s planter looks ready to take flight. It’s black, heavy, and sharp, like something built for war but it holds a green plant, soft and alive. It’s as if the plant is caught between two worlds: one that wants to grow and one that wants to escape. It’s a dark joke about our times, trying to care for nature while everything around us feels like it’s falling apart.
