Birds of Passage

Collage made from upcycled leftovers from my work and workshops, that are somehow rituals of passage.

Eliana in the Human Nest
Site-specific installation made of local pruned fig, pine and palm branches.
A proposal to withdraw inside and contemplate nature and us within it, connecting with our senses in a protective space that replicates a bird structure. Biomimicry.

 

Distopic Nest
Site-specific installation made from fishing nets, plastics and organic matter collected on beaches.
A dystopia that does not imagine a future but reflects a reality where we are choking life.
