THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD,

NO MATTER HOW DIRE IT MAY SEEM FOR THE CURRENT INHABITANTS. USING TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURAL MOTIFS AND ICONOGRAPHY, THE SCULPTURAL MACHINE WORKS AS A LITERAL MANIFESTATION OF A TREE – CREATING A PIECE OF ARCHITECTURE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ORGANISM WHICH ONCE HARBORED HUMANITY’S SALVATION. WHAT IS OUR ROLE IN REPAIRING THE ORGANISM TO WHICH WE HAVE CAUSED IRREPARABLE DAMAGE? OR IS THE ASSUMPTION OF OUR SUPERIORITY FUTILE? THE EXHIBITION SEEKS TO EXAMINE THE NEXT PHASES OF EARTH AND ITS STORY BEYOND MANKIND’S PERIOD OF DOMINATION,

THE SYMBIOCENE.
