Grove

 

Grove is composed of photography and kinetic sculpture made from local organic materials such as eucalyptus branches, cypress trees, pine needles, leaves, and stems collected from the surrounding landscape. The exhibition centers on fragile and temporary materials that exist at the threshold of disappearance. Through simple mechanical systems, these vegetal fragments are given movement, presence, and a renewed physical and emotional life.

The works explore cycles of separation, return, growth, and decay. Leaves tremble, branches rotate, and trees move in repetitive gestures that suggest longing, closeness, vulnerability, and resilience. The plant materials function not only as formal elements, but also as carriers of memory and local identity, existing between nature and human experience. Through their continuous movement, the works attempt to hold fragility and persistence simultaneously.
