Installation
snail shells, metal hooks, steel, acrylic board, feathers, artificial fur, dragonfly wings
The city is where all the humans smell like themselves. All with tenacious energy hiding under an endless adolescence.
Animals become buildings just to get enough time to get lost.
claws on concrete
feathers on windows All bruxism
whiskers in bins
tails caught on the road
a half-eaten hot dog
seeds from a beagle

There is no pure delimitation between The Natural and The Other Stuff as the city and the forest, like interlocked fingers, come together. Adaptability is the most prized attribute as animals have learned to walk on the hot tar and plants strengthen their roots to break concrete. By bringing together the industrial elements with animal sections and vegetal parts, the installation is morphing the natural and UNnatural into a space that takes advantage of hypervigilance and fast response.
The city is changing all that passes through and decides to stay. Bright window displays and night illumination have changed the birds' migration pattern selling the mirage of eternal spring while trees are blooming earlier under 24/7 shop signs.
Fast walking, neon clothes, traffic lights, trash bins, angriness, takeaway food, continuous lamentation - all that will become familiar.
The animal and vegetal elements that will be intercalated with heavy and brutal materials have chosen to define the variety of beings coiling around the tall buildings and crawling underneath the high streets
A wondrous mess of adaptability at a quick pace.
