HIPPYTREE BORE OUT OF AN INTEREST IN HOW THE EVOLUTION OF OUR ENVIRONMENT HAS AFFECTED PERCEPTIONS OF NATURE AND NATIVE HABITAT. URBANIZATION, AND THE CONSEQUENT HUMAN ESTRANGEMENT FROM PURE AND TRADITIONAL FORMS OF NATURE, HAS DRIVEN SOCIETY TO COMPENSATE FOR ITS LOSS BY INTRODUCING NEW AND ULTIMATELY BIZARRE FORMS OF ‘NATURE’ INTO THE CONTEMPORARY MILIEU. BACKYARDS FULL OF GRASS, WINDOWS BRIMMING WITH FLOWERS, FREEWAYS DIVIDED BY FLOWERBEDS AND RESTAURANTS COMPLETE WITH FISHPONDS, ALL ARE EXAMPLES OF MODERN ADDITIONS TO THE URBAN LANDSCAPE. ONE MUST KEEP IN MIND THAT THESE ITEMS ARE APPROPRIATE ONLY AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY; AN INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERING THESE OBJECTS IN PRE-INDUSTRIAL CIVILIZATION (OR PARTS OF THE THIRD WORLD FOR THAT MATTER) WOULD FIND THE REPLICATION OF A POND IRRATIONAL. AS SOCIETY EVOLVES FURTHER AWAY FROM ITS ORGANIC ORIGINS, ARTIFICIAL SURROGATES GROW MORE RELEVANT TO A POPULACE INCREASINGLY WILLING TO REDEFINE ITS PERCEPTION OF NATURE.
HIPPYTREE - AS ART, URBAN INSTALLATIONS AND APPAREL – AROSE OUT OF THESE OBSERVATIONS WITH TWO CHIEF CONCERNS: TO WHAT EXTENT HAS SOCIETY ALTERED ITS PERCEPTIONS TO COINCIDE WITH MAN-MADE COMPOSITIONS OF NATURE? AND HOW FAR CAN WE EXPAND ON THIS PHENOMENON THROUGH AN ARTISTIC AND MAINSTREAM MEDIUM? HIPPYTREE’S ARTWORK AND APPAREL MARK AN INCIPIENT PROJECT TO COMMENT ON NATURE’S SHIFTING PARAMETERS, OR MORE PRECISELY, TO ARTICULATE THROUGH IMAGERY HOW THIS PHENOMENON CONTINUES TO CHANGE HUMAN PERCEPTIONS OF NATURE. WE JUXTAPOSE REPRESENTATIONS OF NATURE, BOTH TRADITIONAL AND ABSURD, AGAINST THE CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE IN ORDER TO DISTORT TRADITIONAL NOTIONS OF OUR ENVIRONMENT AND TO EXPLORE BY WHAT MEANS NATURE’S NEW AESTHETIC IS COMING INTO OUR LIVES. THERE IS A THINNING LINE BETWEEN NATURE AND THE HUMAN CONSTRUCTS INTRODUCED INTO OUR ENVIRONMENT THAT ASSUME NATURE’S ROLE. TAKE A LOOK AT OUR STREETS - NATURE IS COMING…
