'Challenging Nature Project' 2011 - 2012
The Basic assumption for the project is: Societies around the world change nature by
force, but nature challenges itself. It adepts itself to it ‘ s own new form.
The absurd example that started the whole idea for this project was during the Olympic
Games in Peking in 2008: Chinese men shoot rain clouds in order to have no rain during
the games!!
Or in Chernobyl, were people cannot survive and therefore are not able to live there, but
new exotic flowers can!!
As an artist we think it is important to show the public what our statement is about this
subject. It concerns us all.
Therefore I invited artists from different disciplines, having the same aim, to work
together. By showing different points of view from the artists, we can to give the public
an ambiguous vision on Challenging Nature.
Interaction and participation with the public during or after a possible exhibition of the
created work is something I would like to happen. Par example by inviting them for an
open discussion with the artists during the opening.
