Artist Statement:
The artificial world has become our natural world. Humanity now runs on a field of plastic, swims in an ocean of chemicals, and finds comfort in a forest of towers. Our ecosystem has become alien yet somehow our organs continue to function. The perimeter between artificial and natural has been irrevocably penetrated. The landscape, impregnated by machines, exhales a melody of exhaust, as the sun set reveals a toxic atmosphere.
