Exhibitor’s text‍

A conversion of the work Double Down, exhibited in Deep Forest Art Land (2021-22).

Double Down 2.0 is accompanied by audio recordings from the forest, establishing a

connection and merging between the work's provenance and current habitat.

The sound becomes a kind of hyper-nature that speaks to us with an increasingly insistent voice. A kind of metaphorical meaning of Double Down, that with enhanced force, contributes to reflections on what nature subtly communicates when "we don't listen".
