O SERIJI

Andrej Lamut uničenje okolja razume kot katalizator trajnosti in v seriji Invasive Alien Species kombinira papir, narejen iz invazivnih vrst rastlin, z različnimi tehnikami analogne fotografije, med drugim direktnim nanosom emulzije. Lamut rekontekstualizira motiviko invazivnih tujin rastlin, ki slovijo po uničevanju avtohtonih ekosistemov, in jih uporabi kot medij za grajenje novih, nenavadnih, abstraktnih podob. Njegova dela prikazujejo škodljive vrste, kot sta japonski dresnik in kanadska zlata rozga, ki spominjajo na vesoljska bitja izven tega sveta, s čimer je poudarjen njihov pravi značaj. S fizično gesto odstranitve škodljivih vrst iz njihovega okolja, Lamut obenem aktivno podpira rehabilitacijo svojega domačega okolja.


ABOUT THE SERIES

Andrej Lamut considers environmental destruction as a catalyst for sustainability by combining paper made from invasive plant species with various analog film techniques, including liquid emulsion, in his series Invasive Alien Species. Lamut recontextualizes the subject matter of invasive foreign plants, known for destroying native ecosystems, as a medium from which to build upon new strange abstract forms. The ensuing works showcase harmful plants like Japanese Knotweed and Canadian Goldenrod, by revealing their true character, reminiscent of otherworldly alien forms. Additionally, in the physical act of removing invasive plants from their destructive environment, Lamut actively supports the rehabilitation of his native environment.
