Susan Beiner

Nature is defined as something separate from humankind, existing independently of us. Yet this definition is flawed because it tells us we are disconnected from and other than nature. Because of this distanced mode of thinking, a conflict has arisen between nature and culture. I raise concerns about the effects on the fragile ecosystem of humans, animals and plants. My objective is to raise awareness and create an ecological balance between our connection to nature and culture through the materiality of modern craft, as we choose an interior landscape from our surroundings. Installation allows me to reassemble the multiples on a much larger scale, allowing the viewer a unique opportunity to peer into the interior pattern of stylized, artificial plant life.
