Toxic Bloom by Ethan Garner from Cambridge, MA (Part of Charnival). Toxic Bloom appears as a mechanical, rigid flower, with the petals opening up, exposing its stamen to the air. The piece was built in a manner to evoke both biological and mechanical elements, and is modeled as a hybrid between a Phage (the viruses that infect bacteria) and a plant.
