Green islands, narrow margins and vein patterns remain visible within leaves whose surrounding surfaces have turned yellow, red or brown. Their uneven distribution reveals a body undergoing change in different places and to different degrees. Some green areas follow the leaf’s branching architecture, while others appear as isolated patches within a contrasting field. Whole-leaf photographs establish these relationships, and microscopic views bring their boundaries and textures into closer focus. Within the project’s investigation of water withdrawal, these areas become starting points for examining how colour, structure and material condition relate to one another.
