Dandelion is not a weed. It is actually a very healthy alternative to lettuce.

Artist makes a hyper-realistic plant out of BRONZE and all people in the comments can talk about is the definition of “weed.”

This is amazing!! I’m fascinated with 3D botanical sculptures because plants are so difficult to capture realistically enough for say, a botanist on the other side of the world to study (pressed specimens don’t preserve many aspects, photos don’t show 3D structures well, etc)
There were some 19th century glass artists that did a great job filling this role using glass ([check these out](https://www.hmnh.harvard.edu/makers)) but it was a meticulous process that no one really bothered on such a scale since, and using bronze would have been so much more durable!

What scale is this? Like, actual size or made bigger for artistic effect?
This type of art would work really well in a minimalist, mostly white space.
