hole

This artwork is an attempt at showing the distance between man-made spaces, such as the space of the museum, and the space of nature, kept out of the city, out of people’s lives.

 

By extracting a circular piece of the mountain grass floor and displacing it in the museum space, I created scar in both the natural landscape and the museum.  A hole opens, bringing one into the other, in a strange interpenetration, an uncanny closeness. 

The goal is to create a paradox: by creating an unbreakable link between the two spaces, bringing them very close to each other, the contrast between them becomes all the more salient.
