Phoenix

Alarm clock!

HUMAN is the most intelligent creature on earth, and unfortunately is often the dumbest in the most basic situations. We live in a world where we don't need to interact with nature to have fruit on the table, to buy timber or to cultivate our land with our own hands to grow wheat for bread. The expression "We live on the earth" is very expressive... we live on it so much and not in harmony with it that we take advantage of the sources of raw materials to the last drop, we use them and do not take care of them, we litter, we pollute the environment that we breathe in, eat and drink, which makes life possible and where we return after our death. And we do this because the human World'S focus has shifted to the world of power and material goods to such an extent that we have forgotten to care about what really IS important.

The foundation of Phoenix, its egg, is a piece of a fallen tree that was on fire from the inside for several hours due to human error, and which was home to hundreds of bee colonies. Neither most of the bees nor the tree survived, in fact, on that windy evening, if I hadn't noticed that something was wrong, according to the firemen, the whole street could have burnT down. The plastic in its egg represents the plastic waste that is already in the stomachs of most the birds and fishes, which we then process and eat again. The entire artwork is built from garbage and materials left from my work. I also want to draw people's attention to the fact that If we don't learn from our mistakes, if we don't act immediately, then one day we will wake up and find ourselves eating plastic and dead nature...
