‍Exhibitor’s text

I´ve looked for the world in a cigarette butt, and heaven in the bin outside my studio. Infinity in a broken screen, and eternity in a pile of leaves. I believe that there is a direct link between matter, landscape, and human worldviews. And that there is a corresponding relationship between touch and mind. By crafting with the landscape, I hope to provide a seat of contemplation, where you might consider our responsibility, as a planetary force, towards finite resources, ecological systems, and other beings.
