My work 'Walls of Chlorophyll' is a thought, raising questions about the symbiosis between human beings and nature, and making us question where we are now, and where we are headed to. The majority of our existence is spent indoors. We are born indoors, we build walls to create a sense of security. Groups of human bodies are held in containers. We become conscious of the fictitious reality in which we live in: static air without breeze, false colour from artificial light.
We are looking to support a few more artists this year. We offer artists great opportunities to get their work shown at exhibitions, and get their profile raised through the work we do with our press team and our relationships with the media. Art work will get published in our art catalogues which gets distributed to the public and direct to art collectors. During the later half of 2012 and into 2013 we will also be entering our artists into select art fairs.
