A long-form generative art collection minted on Verse platform as part of the exhibition "Reconciliation with the Living", 2022

In spite of the terrible challenges that we are bound to endure, we want to embrace our creative energy and the joy to share it.

"Landscape with Carbon Capture is a critique of my own environmental consciousness as an artist working with technology around natural themes. Although I do not know any solution, although I am helpless just like you, I want to fight with what Ive got. I want to acknowledge the great hypocrisy of our times. Carbon emissions are here to stay; they'll stain my canvas, no matter how green the colours on my palette."

By placing our trust in any of the "future techs" to solve todays environmental problems, we run the risk of postponing the actions that mattered. Carbon capture is one of those technologies weve engaged in to give us an impression of action; perhaps, unconsciously, in order to cover up our anguish, our helplessness or our guilt. 

Yet we need to keep moving forward. Art has this kind of energy, charismatic and unifying. If I believe little in technology to save humanity, I keep hope in humanity, in its conscience, in the universality of its love. If only one power is given to artists, it is that of being able to touch, sometimes, the hearts of men.
