BOT

The installation works as a living organism which uses healing as a metaphor for clinical perception of human health condition: it reflects the state of our planet.
An experiment, a laboratory that equally embraces the life and dead.
Besides the ethical quest, it relates the singularity and weakness of humanity towards the layers of the politics of nature.
The installation encounter the illness as an effect of man impact on earth: a ruthless appropriation of invisible symptoms on the functionality of organs and limbs of human body and environment as a body.
It holds the dual power of survival and extinction.
