KINETIC PLANT

CINETICA. 122x90cm. Acrylic on wood. Ibiza 2012

THE STORY IT TELLS...
In a world where we have taken nature´s generous resources to an extreme point of waste, we are confronted with extreme challenges to survive.
In this world,( situation) I saw the way nature keeps reinventing itself and taking in the impossible as possible, many times going beyond our understanding.
In this world where the sun had stopped shining, and we no longer had the sun as a source of energy, plants, that couldn´t do their photosynthesis had developed this new way to generate the energy to stay alive. Many of their leaves turned into rotating wheels, that with this kinetic movement, generated life.
