Unfortunately this acceleration is creating an impact that can become irreversible. The challenge belongs to all of us is to carry out small individual actions that improve and favor our sense of common responsibility and especially that of governments and large companies, whose irresponsibility is much greater.
Description of project by SpY
In “Tierra”, SpY presents an artistic project made up of a luminous red sphere caged inside a cube-shaped structure, constructed with the type of scaffolding normally used on building sites.
These 2 simple geometric elements (sphere and cube) form a large-scale construction which stands almost 25 metres high and has been installed in Plaza de Colón in Madrid.
This powerful visual statement is accompanied by a bright red light emanating from inside the sphere, from which one can almost feel the heat transmitted by the concept of the work.
In this work, SpY asks us to reflect on the way in which our home makes up a whole of which we form part, and in which everything is connected as if it were a living creature. There have always been changing climate conditions and the Earth has always been constantly evolving.
However, as a consequence of human activity, these changes are happening over a very short period of time and have resulted in worrying alterations.
Unfortunately, this rapid change has created an impact which could become irreversible. We need to propose dialogue and actions that will contribute to improved collective awareness through a value system which can turn this situation around.
The challenge we all face is to take small individual steps to improve and contribute to our sense of shared responsibility.
Through this artistic offering, SpY invites the audience to reflect and enjoy this urban installation, where visitors will be surprised by the scale and the contrasting light set against the city background.
