In 2019, Donghwan Kam started collecting soft-abandoned plants by previous/current resident artists at Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (RABK). He helped the plants to occupy the sunniest space inside the building and took care of the plants.
On the occasion of the Rijksakademie Open Studios 2021, Kam collaborated with Minji Choi, setting criteria to determine a scenography consisting of plants, which have been arranged in front of the window according to their heights. Such hierarchical disposition, going from small to large, allowed each plant to get sunlight equally and to stand out to visitors individually.
