This work is located at the Uttarayan Foundation. India.
The human footprint on Earth has put an end to the Halocene era. This is the age we live in, it began 12,000 years ago. Scientists are discussing whether to officially recognize a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, which marks the time of a significant change in the Earth's physical, chemical and biological landscape by man.
Being in tune with time, getting into the weather, as Camus said, does it mean to take part in this unprecedented turning point in civilization, where people drastically change their living conditions and ecological balance on Earth?
What is the role of the arts in this process? Are the artists engaged in environmental issues more innovative? Do they change the role of art in society? Is there a new, post-carbon and post-anthropocentric culture?
These are the questions described with several scraps that give me grounds to implement this project
