Artist: Vegesent
Materials: Cardboard and repurposed washing sponges, sand from Helsinki, discarded acrylic paint and PVA glue.
Dimensions: 12 x 12 × 12 cm | 5 x 5 × 5 in
Art description: This cube is made from crushed stone, cardboard, and repurposed washing sponges, bringing together elements of the living world and traces of human consumption.
It's gold surface reflects the way sunlight transforms and activates the ground as the primary force enabling all life on Earth. It contrasts this with human systems of selective breeding that create 60% of Earth’s animal population — production animals. Through this tension, it questions human authorship over life and situates us within, not above, ecological systems.
