About this project!
For this project Joanna Brown started to think about how the world would look and feel like after it’s “end”. She focused on illustrating human interference with nature specifically how human products left behind interact with the world/environment around. The person that invoked her install ideas was Timothy Morton and his ideas around “ecological thinking” that means humans must wake up and deal with what is left after the “end of the world”. She has chosen to visualize and focus on the junk and human products left behind and how they melt into the earth space. She started looking toward Anna Solal's art and process which are assembles made of trash cut-outs, decontextualizing elements of industrial objects and sewing them back together. This inspired her to combine more human elements such as; electronics, gloves, string, garbage bag, laundry rack and product packaging materials, with toys. She merged objects together not by sewing rather melting! This whole process resulted in the combining together of nature with toxic human products visualizing for you the end after the end of the world. Year made 2020.
