This is my first installation piece outside. To work out in the natural environment is an influence that has come from graffiti artists. They take what materials they have and apply them to the streets weather its spray, paste or installations the work interacts with its environment. For this piece to work i had to create plenty of tree shrubs made of card. I then went out in the morning to plant them. This piece is about giving back to mother nature what was originally taken. Some people believe that there is a balance. Even thought there is a fear of global warming others believe it will just simply balance its self out naturally. this piece is not just about giving back to mother nature it is about the destruction of nature caused by mankind. As a race mankind has caused a lot of destruction. We are like a disease or parasite. We just take all natural resources without thinking of the consequences. If we are not careful as a race we will cause the destruction of ourselves as well as the surrounding environment. Trees are our main source of oxygen and with them using carbon dioxide we would soon suffocate. Yet we continue in our self destructive ways.
