We as humans are all connected together through collective land and plant life and as they dwindle and change, taking care of them and each other become more radical of ideas and values. \nThe work proposed is a new frontier: the take back of systematically destroyed land for new frontiers through textile. This installation is a version of a new future, a vision that holds our environment to its highest value; providing traditionally marginalized people with the power to change the way we operate in this new developing world.  The use of couturier textile making techniques and garment construction will be used alongside biodegradable beads that are each handcrafted individually with seeds placed inside them. Seeds ultimately transform into life that feeds us, clothes us, shelters us, and has the power to change our collective environment. Chosen seeds that are fossilized in the hand-made beads for this proposed work are seeds that narrate places of origin, showcase paths of migration, and seeds that repair our depleted and poised dirt back into rich soil. When the beads are constructed into a textile they are created as modes of armor that lay on top of individual papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 figures.","space":"Soil, our land and the collective action of healing is the most important part of this installation, the 8 figures hosting the textile will be in the space in a variety of arm gestures, underneath the figures will be living soil growing the crop each armour piece holds in seed form. The soil under the feet of the figures will be connected in the space. The space preferred is an indoor space that is open with a 10 by 15 ft area for installation.","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":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Jacob","surname":"Olmedo","email":"jacobolmedo@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"568679554","address":"711 Ocean Ave Apt 4G","city":"Brooklyn","nacionality":"American Citizen","country_id":"236","birthdate":"1994-09-22T04:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1994-09-22T04:00:00.000Z","telephone":"9209189017","web":"jacobolmedo.com","fileCount":2}
