Soil chromatography is…
a soil science test that farmers use to assess soil health. I use it to illuminate the unseen vitality of the ground beneath our feet.
I make the normally invisible compounds and bacteria that live inside plants and soil visible using traditional film photography chemicals. Every color and striation you see is a different compound or bacteria present in the sample.

Free postcard with every purchase!
Every purchase of a physical item receives a free postcard. One per order. The current postcards include a picture of one of my favorite chromatograms, Chinese Chive Roots and Stems, that I grew in my community garden plot in Chicago.

Giving back
My work with chromatography is intrinsically related to the land, and some of my chromatograms are made using food and plants grown on stolen land. Indigenous communities are the land's strongest defenders, so 10% of each chromatogram sale gets donated to Indigenous communities.
