2021 Floating Land - CLASH

Clash - Tamara Kirby & Corrie Wright CLASH - 
A seemingly ‘transmogrified’ landscape of seven hundred tiny cushions morphing the rocky outcrop, a paradox that poses the ambiguous question…’how far are we prepared to go’? As we enter a new heightened era of global awareness we utilize our installations to further critique pending climate change issues. Our intervention in nature aims to accentuate the need to consider a ‘soft landing’ in our future approach, to minimise and cushion the effects our impakt has on habitats. Being environmental artists we are continually compelled to offer ephemeral installations that stimulate conversations and question our place in the environmental agenda. In our work we deliberately introduce synthetic materials into nature to form a contrast, a CLASH, a prickle in the side, a point of departure from the coveted pristine territories we all desire….and can never have.
