New York artist Yuken Teruya continues to craft amazingly meticulous works on paper from unlikely materials, including a series of floral growths from the front pages of the New York Times in his latest solo show. Here, a plant rises from a photo accompanying an article about illegal logging in the Amazon rainforest. (At Josee Bienvenu Gallery through April 11th.)
