About The Artwork
This piece refers to the Grasberg gold and copper mine in Indonesia. The paradisiacal blue background is infiltrated by the polluting grey which seeps out into the pristine environment in which it sits. The structure of the mine emanates unease as we stand on the edge of a seemingly bottomless pit. The strength of humanity as a collective is at once acknowledged and yet the vulnerability of the individual is the overwhelming emotion when presented with such a sight.
