Observe and preserve the common material, allowing it time to evolve and become new material. The leek, from the onion family, is made up of layers of water-laden leaves, ranging from white to green. As it dries, the white part becomes very thin, and its pearlescent appearance is accentuated by a fine shiny film. The green part, composed of a double thickness, changes color to brown and can take on a leather-like or wood-like appearance, either flexible or brittle. During the process of observing the evolution of color and material, insects have marked their paths, creating fine lacework.
