Glints of Nature

Glints of Nature (Destellos de la Naturaleza)

Elia Gasparolo – Joaquín Fargas

A mechatronic robotic installation exploring the relationship between human beings and nature. Mechanical bushes orient themselves toward the sun and establish a signal system that enables a symbolic dialogue between the environment and the viewer. As a ritual, the work proposes a reflection on the need for communication, belonging, and interdependence with the natural world.
