ARTISTIC STATEMENT :
The anthropological postulate that set appart nature from culture tends to oppose, on one side « the human » and on the other side « nature ». This construction, specific to our cultural context, keeps a distance between the human and the world in which it lives, the world it should be living with. Today the climate crisis we are experiencing, revealing an unprecedented ecological urgency, shows and confirms an unbalanced and violent relation of domination between the human and nature. Beliefs and humans actions of possessions and objectivisation of the natural world(s) have profound harmful impacts.From these spaces of thoughts, continuously in flux, arises the work of Camille Dedenise.
