Installation
Archeology of the present time is an installation made with artefacts that confuse those who try to decipher them. The installation devices are reminiscent of the 19th century Natural History Museums, but the pieces that are part of them reveal a strange nature. The materials they're made of seem to be from natural origin, but are they? And what nature is that? In the near future what will natural mean? And what species will exist as a reflection of this same nature? An installation that works as a Cabinet of curiosities with an expanded body that evokes a past time, presents a possible present and anticipates a vision of the future that reflects the changes of life on Earth.
