INSTALLATION „SOIL“

“Soils” is a visual, experiential story about two worlds: Nature and Civilization.

They seem to be in distant opposition, but in fact they operate according to the same principles – connection, exchange and constant transformation.

The installation reveals that both in nature and in the man-made world there is soil – a medium from which value is born.

In nature, it is earth, moss layers, roots, mycelium.

In civilization – concrete, construction debris, defective materials, raw materials, which we usually see as waste.

However, in both cases, soil is the beginning.

Nature’s soil: connections that hold beneath the surface.

On the nature side, only the surface is visible – moss, earth, vegetation and noise. Noise is the spray cans that we can only see in silence and what we cannot see in noise.

But beneath the ground lies a network of mycelium – nature’s communication system through which plants share nutrients, information and energy.

It is a living, globally functioning network in which: there is no waste, everything returns to the cycle; there are no separate units – everything depends on each other.

Form is the consequence of a functioning process.

This model is a lesson for us – connections, exchange and cooperation create life.
Civilization’s soil: what already exists
Concrete, wood, glass, textiles, metal, plastic, etc.

These are the layers we have left behind, from which life and value can also grow.

This side shows:
Concrete fragments – as new soil;
Reinforcement mesh – as the mycelium of civilization;
Real mushrooms growing on concrete – a symbol of life even in an unfavorable environment;
Objects created from these raw materials – a harvest.

This is proof that by collaborating, connecting disciplines and seeing value in waste, we can create real, functional systems and products.

The “nutrition” of the soil depends on the network – on whether we connect raw materials, processes, disciplines.
Between two soils: human footprint and responsibility.
This is a garden watering can and a work glove.

Symbols that speak of the role of man:

Watering can – every soil needs care, connection, and work; the glove – our footprint, the ability to shape, but also to influence; this is evidence of human intervention and the decline of contact with nature.

Here comes the choice: do we leave only a mark, or do we create a medium for the growth of value, a system, not just an object.

“Soils” is not just an artistic composition.

It is a model that reveals the entire value creation chain:

The layer of raw materials already exists,
The network connects itself when people and ideas meet,
Process gives birth to form, and form gives birth to process.
Work, dialogue and creation create a result.

Here architects, artists, production, engineering, business and communities converge.
This is not just aesthetics – it is a working model that shows how we can create value from what is already under our feet.

An invitation to connect

This installation is not just for looking – it is for seeing the possibility.
To understand that the soil of civilization can be fertile if we water it, connect, share and learn from the patterns of nature.

It is a springboard for creativity, collaboration, and new economic structures, where circularity, efficiency, and sustainability are not obstacles, but driving forces.
