Temporary Permanent Drawing

Sustainable Art Prize 2020 winner I deal primarily with local architectural practices and investigate the visual culture and the aesthetics of cities, the relationship between nature, humankind, and humankind’s urge to build. My work focuses on consumption, both in terms of politics, and ecology, also on awareness towards nature, history, and architectural heritage. I build cities with no infrastructure to represent the spaces we create, criticising today's architectural mentality, which is low in both form and function, and high on profit. This criticism to me is my way of appreciating our architectural and cultural heritage. I, as an admirer of traditional architecture, try to criticise the new architectural culture by building crooked cityscapes. I mainly use found/reclaimed materials such as cardboard. Cardboard is made from wood fiber, so recycling it saves both landfill space and trees.
