Elo Vahtrik’s exhibition “How to look at grass?” is the highlighting of the foolishness of human nature, and especially of unconscious behaviors, through the view of the grass as a symbol and concept. The exhibition is inspired by lawn mowing robots and how the one-pole aesthetics of wealth is expressed in the desire to rule nature.
How tall can grass grow?
Does the smell of fresh grass fit in an aerosol can?
