Jen Scheuer: Ginseng Pile
My work is based on The Doctrine of Signatures. This is a historical theory that proposes that the world has an order that can be revealed through visual and sensory associations. Thus, plants can inform us how to use them because they look like our bodies (i.e. cloves look like teeth and can relieve a toothache). This lithograph is a drawing of ginseng piled together, based on my experience of looking for ginseng in shops that have human body characteristics such as limbs.
