NATURE IS STORED IN A WAREHOUSE COMPLEX

Finnish Artist Ilkka Halso - “My work deals with man’s ambivalent relation to nature. It is typical for human beings to mold nature, justifying their actions by their aesthetic and economic aspirations. But nature cannot endure everything. In my photographs, control over nature has acquired a concrete form. The elements of nature have been rethought and have, for logistical purposes, been packed into modules that are easier to handle. The whole of nature is stored in a gigantic warehouse complex and the most common types of nature from soil and flora to fauna can be easily assembled into working ecosystems. What is happening? Has nature been evacuated to await better times, or has it been simplified into merchandise and absurd tableaux? I am looking into the future. I don’t like what I see.”

6,000 old incandescent light bulbs and some chicken wire form a beautiful, interactive cloud installation.

“We were hoping for wonder, curiosity, and excitement,” says artist Caitlind Brown. “What we didn’t expect was the look of awe on people’s faces as they stood beneath Cloud, trying to figure out how it works.”
