What if culture was nature all along?
While walking one afternoon at the JOYA artists residency in Spain, I sometimes found myself unable to distinguish between sculptures made by artists and naturally occurring phenomena. Since I received stimulation from both, I began to question why I should make such distinctions. These photographs, are a record of a temporary shift in my perception of the ‘natural’ and the ‘cultural’–a duality that could be said to be at the heart of our current environmental dilemma.
“What if nature has always been literate, numerate, social? And what happens to ‘the human’ if its exceptional identity and status is conceded quantum, non-local and ecological implication?”
