Commissioned by Straight Through the Wall 2019 video program, New York, NY
As humans have evolved they have developed many means of detaching themselves from nature, the work is delving into the theme of “devolution”, trying to analyze the deconstruction of “natural” processes. My video will be concentrating on the eagerness of human beings to differentiate themselves from nature throughout the process of civilization. However, it is ironic that modern people develop their identity and living style by eating organic food and trying be closer to nature, while the development of human being's identity is through denying the evolution process and the connection to nature.
