Zvi Goldman, Sculptor

Earth Conquered (2)

Elements:
Distressed (Squeezed) Earth planet by a tightening directional rope; all is suspended on a thin copper golden base armature.

Narrative:
The sculpture is a meditation on the parasitic and transformative relationship between our planet Earth and the biological forces it harbors. Over time, the life phenomena (represented by the DNA-like rope) that appeared on Earth and increased the planet fragility. Human survival may depend on our ability to embark on another planet. Our remaining runway is short and precarious.
