An asphalt road, curb, earth and grass are depicted.
The boundary between civilization and wildlife. "A society based on the principles of reason and justice" provokes the destruction of the organic and inorganic material world. We see the junction of two different worlds that have found a place on the same planet. Laws of human against the laws of nature.
The catchphrase "cross the rubicon" means to take an irreversible step. I propose to consider when humanity itself has passed the "point of no return."
This work is part of the series "Terra".
The series of works "Terra" criticizes the Anthropocene. The project tells the story of the most valuable and improper replacement - the Earth. It consists of works resembling a section of land that changed its position from horizontal to vertical.
