DeforestAtction - Growing Drawing

DeforestAction is a project starts in 2015, i highlights one of the environmental and social problems, experienced first, in Indonesia, the illegal deforestation to promote the cultivation of palm oil. We are in an blindly age that destroys and devours ignoring human rights and environmental issues for economic purposes. I want to revive the catastrophe of Deforestation showing the rawest face, such as: the biggest illegal fire in the world, illegal deforestation of thousands of hectares of rainforest, the destruction of an ecosystem, thousands of animals wounded fleeing and destined to die, tribes forced to leave their land. This painting came from a picture that i made years ago in Aceh,Sumatra island, Indonesia. Is a geometrical prospective of a new plantation of palm oil trees. They are meticolosi precise on line and prospective, like a human being can do. I create the wall sculpture using plaster mixed with cement, tempera, pigments, gold powder, silver powder, exhausted oil, gesso, tar and lots of other materials mixed together, then i leave it outside under the rain, the sun, the cold, until the material mixed as i like. It tokes more then 7 months to be ready. With the copper i create the new born trees all with the exactly same shape but in different sizes, and i painted white to highlight their innocence.
