Tori Karpenko www.torikarpenko.com Nature Always Wins All of us are aware, on some level, of our own balancing act with Nature. As I contemplate the degree to which humans are a part of nature vs. uniquely outside of nature, all of the man made inventions that surround me either increase my connection with nature or create greater separation. Civilization itself could be the greatest thing ever invented or, paradoxically, the very thing that bring us to destroy our own habitat. This installation hangs in the tension of that dynamic by juxtaposing the advance of technological invention against nature's inherent tendency to reclaim any space not overly controlled by man. Left to it's own devices, Nature Always Wins.
