The attempt to destroy the inexhaustible flow of the solar resource is opposed to the waste of limited terrestrial resources. \n In the economy, abundance exists initially, while the need must be produced specifically with the help of various marketing and ideological tools. \nMoreover, it is actually abundance and overproduction that provokes the emergence of environmental issues. For the artist, the opposition to light, excessive intensity and a thirst for self-destruction make up the DNA of the modern world. \nThe installation, combined from various elements, as in the alchemist\u2019s room, resembles a cult room for rituals. Oil, a living tree, solar panels, sculptures of wolves, fluorescent lamps become part of a narrative about the endless confrontation between light and darkness.","space":"The installation consists of 4 wooden sculptures, 3 paintings (on solar panels), a graphic composition, oil and luminescent lamps. Can be located in a exhibition space of 50 Sq.m.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":"https:\/\/yadi.sk\/d\/Z7JGO9eSwe685A","cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Alexey","surname":"Martins","email":"amartins@yandex.ru","dni_type":"Other","dni":"0409806467","address":"Malaya Gruzinskaya street, 3-9, apt 16","city":"Moscow","nacionality":"Russia","country_id":"192","birthdate":"1989-07-10T21:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1989-07-10T21:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+7 985757 84 24","web":"www.alexeymartins.com"}
