Evolving Interactions Mark's piece is an illustration of the relationships that are formed through our interactions with the natural landscape. It shows the ever evolving balance between nature and industry. This hybrid form is born from this relationship. The forms emerge from the two mounds as if they have been growning inside and have finally broken the thin skin that has contained them. It flows in and out of the landscape that has been so effected by industry yet has been reclaimed by nature leaving only topological memories. |
