so lovely



I remember seeing this installation by Tara Donovan, in Juxtapoz magazine in high school and always think about it now and then. Its everything I love about art. Its delicate yet strong, beautiful yet bad for the environment, its ethereal yet recognizable. I love artwork that is made from everyday objects or comments on everyday tools that we use and throw away like the world is out garbage can. This material that takes "decades" to actually decompose and is so awful for our planet is now a healthful and useful material that flourishes the space instead of deteriorates.
