"The Earth We Don't Know/

/The Claw Machine"

“The Earth We Don’t Know” is an installation that explores the things happening on our planet. The planet which the human civilization has claimed as their own, without learning to live in harmony with it first. I wanted to dig deeper and see what is behind the curtain, which people close to not add worries to their everyday lives. I am showcasing different aspects, believing that everyone should do their own judgement.

The exhibition is concentrated on the main piece - Claw Machine. Traditionally being the symbol of fun, in this project it’s used as a metaphorical statement for people’s neglect over the animals. We portray ourselves as higher species, but at the same time, we do these harmful acts against our hierarchically “lower” friends.

The Claw Machine represents many terrifying, non-spoken-about, offerings of peace from our side. Should we behave like this if we are smarter? Do we have any right to decide for them? I encourage to take a look and think for yourself.
