Where a wooden box can transcend being a mere frame—it is a living archive of transformation, an ever-evolving assemblage that embodies the ongoing dialogue between nature and technology, growth and decay, past and future, resilience and interconnectedness. Constructed from found materials—electrical cables, discarded toys, reclaimed pallets, and thriving plants—each box carries its own history. Assembled by our collective, fragmented narratives are woven together, forming a complex self-organising community, a shifting tapestry of resilience, adaptation, and transformation.
More than static structures, these boxes morph and evolve as elements are added, rearranged, or reclaimed by nature. Their modularity reflects the impermanence of human intervention, the way life and industry intertwine and fracture over time. The creeping organic overgrowth intermingling with industrial remnants, mirroring the push and pull between technological progress and nature’s enduring reclamation. Our urge to box, categorise and define differences is balanced by the collective will to find similarities and connections.
This dynamic interplay invites reflection on our increasingly dystopian present, on our ever-shifting relationship with the Earth, the artificial worlds we construct, and the precious resources we used and discard every day. The assemblage grows like a network—expanding, disassembling, reforming—never fixed, always in flux. As we engage with it, we become part of its evolution, questioning where we stand in the balance between creation and entropy, and what collective future we are shaping in this unfolding narrative.
