This year at the Yangmingshan – Grass Art Village, the back garden of Taipei, based on the concept of “Site-Specific, Brunetti collected branches and bamboos from the local area and wrapped a ring of shoots around the hundred year old tree beside her 91 studio. In this obscure corner of the woods, man made relics coexists with Nature, poetically creating a halo of life for the old tree.
My wind objects, ROYAL PAIR, are adapted to the North Hessian Landscape. They are situated amongst windmills that now overpower the old hilly land. A pair of gossamer white gowns float out in the wind on a wide open summit plain that is towered over by wind turbines. This \'Royal Pair\' dance in the wind.
This work is designed for a small medieval town in Belgium. Nature looks completely different in towns. A town, for man, is part of nature as well as somewhere to live. My work shows the relationship between nature and artifice
In my work “Forêt Surprise” for “Natures Urbaines” at Fontenay near Paris I looked at the City Hall park with the eyes of a child. I covered the natural color of the tree trunks (green, gray, not truly brown) with terra di Siena pigment. They took on a different look – new and rounder. Children use this red-brown color when they want to paint trees.
For the Floating Land project in Noosa, Queensland. I proposed to give salt back to the ocean. Salt is one of our most important minerals for surviving and regulating our blood and the osmoses of our water balance. As all life emerged from the sea and our blood has the same percentage of salt as the ocean water, it is the last heritage of our origin.
Mon projet est installé à un angle d´un champs de riz. Je veux y faire une jonction entre un grand champ de riz et un petit champ carré (petit en relation) que je vais excaver à cet angle. Mon petit champ serait environ entre 6 m de longueur et 3-4 m de larguer. La connexion entre le champ et le petit champs est fait d´une grande vague de roseaux

When I select a space to work, whether it be in nature or an urban landscape, I try to find some immediate relation to its next biggest border. For example, this could be a building, a tree, water or something else. Around this border I create my own space. If there is not such a relation point I immediately try to create my own space and create a relationship with the spiritual, historical and/or geological views. My whole interest is to create my own very personal space but this space is always in connection to one of the above conditions.
At first I try to inform myself about the specific situation of people, the habitat and the wider landscape. Each landscape can tell us about the very special and sensible condition of the place. Next I choose my materials which varies according to my current artist statement. Material’s are important because they can capture one’s innermost thoughts. Finally, I put my eyes in my finger caps and being working on the piece.
