The plant is the body | 2020

‘Site specific’ installation inside the Z42 Gallery Art tower. Varied dimensions. Roots and vines painted with red earth, gray earth, and ashes from the Pantanal and Atlantic Forest fires. The mother root is reborn and transmuted from the ashes, connected to the universe by an umbilical cord, linking all beings. The red roots are like an extension of the veins, the blood of the plants, our saps that allow communication between us living beings: humans, animals, vegetables, minerals, rivers… As Emanuele Coccia says: “We are always born in another body , participating in the transformation of life. To be born is to be nature, we are the world”. We are all connected, everything is connected.
