CONCEPT
Fragile Future is a multidisciplinary light sculpture, which fuses nature and technology. The sculpture contains real dandelion seeds that were picked by hand and connected seed-by-seed to an LED light. This labor-intensive process is a clear statement against mass production and throwaway culture. Fragile Future is a modular work that can overgrow a space. It consists of three-dimensional bronze electrical circuits connected to light-emitting dandelions. The project is a critical, yet utopian, vision of the future of our planet, where two seemingly opposite evolutions have made a pact to survive together. Are the rapid technological developments of our age really more advanced than the evolution of nature, of which the dandelion is such a transient and symbolic example? And could those two evolve together and meet in the future?
