"On Fire"

("When Earth Calls" series)
In this series, I voice my feelings and thoughts on nature awareness, on the human/nature complicated relationship of connection and rejection. Incorporating earthy elements in this series, (such as wood and stones, along with man-made materials), my intention is to create a family of abstract pieces, rich in texture and deep earthy colours.

About this work
We live in a world so defined by climate change and human destruction - by forests burning and glaciers melting, by extinguished species and rising seas - that it's sometimes hard to fathom what an even more dismal future might look like.
It seems like we, humans, do not want to be a part of nature, did we decide to take a separate path? We are on fire. Will we be able to survive past the ashes?
