The work uses the repetition of an object like a car to create a certain identity not only with its significance, but also with its scale and temporality. This already suggests a kind of staging with portions of land plots juxtaposed with figures on a void. Thus, the images that I aim to invoke underlie installing questions on the way we inhabit the planet and our relationship with it. The materials appear in the composition as an allusion to our buildings, the degradation and desertification provoked by human action.
