Carboflora at Museum of Contemporary Art
Happy to present my Carboflora at Museum of Contemporary Art https://eng.msub.org.rs/ at OVERVIEW EFFECT together with many other awesome artists. As Blanca de la Torre and Zoran Erić said in curatorial statement, "this project seeks to explore the complexity of the ecological problematics and the inseparable links between them and issues like corporate imperialism, indigenous sovereignty, gender, different kinds of extractivisms and the importance of decolonising not just history but also our concept of nature in order to reshape an inclusive mindset akin to a post-anthropocentric world". Exhibition will be open till September 20th.
Carbofloara https://www.tanjav.art/work/carboflora is a virtual environment populated by plants that echo the Earth’s flora from hundreds of millions of years ago, specifically, the plants of the Carboniferous period that now constitute coal fields. Few virtual plants within Carboflora are tracking the quantities of harmful particles in the atmosphere by retrieving data from the nearest measuring station. Its levels are reflected in the way plants inhabit the virtual system. Some of these plants appear also within my MetaGarden Sphere4 accessible online https://www.tanjav.art/work/sphere4
