DANCING ELEPHANT
PROJECTS
BOGOTÁ,
COLOMBIA

Christine Nguyen, Untitled (Humming),
2009 |
The planet collects bits and pieces of life. Each organism, plant and
person leaves a vestige of what once was their existence and often, a new
beginning for something or someone else. Biodiversity builds that possibility by
giving energy to every corner of the earth; it nurtures, adorns and produces a
large ecosystem of plants, rivers, animals and roots that are responsible for
keeping the circle of life
alive.
Dancing Elephant Projects' first exhibit, Florilegio, is like
the earth, a collection: an anthology of works of art and perspectives about the
world that focus on biodiversity. A pack of animals, plants, sceneries, and
critical sensibilities that have crossed local and foreign borders to lay down
their path, hoping that beauty, abstraction, and reality mean the beginning of a
personal consciousness towards the biological greatness of the planet and the
importance of being part of positive
change.
