ASHES TO ASHES, DUST TO DUST Scarlett Rouge & cc-tapis
“Over the years, I found myself harking back and reaffirming the original sketches of my forest of Tree Creatures. After their use in the installation of Origine Oscura in the Asylum of Infinite Becoming, their reality as sculptures was allocated to a secret garden tended to by a dear friend. We watched them grow fungi and slowly create real roots into the soil, until the day they could no longer withstand the events of weather and were slowly completely washed away. Their dark shadows are a testament to the impermanency of life. For many, Art has a posture of immortalising oneself, in my view, and especially in this moment of fragile continuity, Art needs to remind us of the vulnerable state we are facing. Nothing is forever and Forever is not a thing.”. Scarlett Rouge.
