Quercus Suber Utopia

Abstract

Negli ultimi anni Mathis Collins ha lavorato con raccoglitori di sughero, popolazioni locali delle foreste mediterranee e con villaggi e artisti, e pensato opere che si concentrano su tematiche quali l’ecologia, la cultura e il modello economico delle regioni dove si lavora questo materiale. Quercus suber Utopia è un progetto che mira alla realizzazione di un'opera d'arte collettiva, nelle regioni dell’Europa del sud e del Nord Africa dove crescono gli alberi da sughero. Le sculture prodotte per Quercus Suber Utopia, basate sul dibattito relativo alla costruzione di una comunità, erano pensate per essere esposte in ciascuna delle realtà partecipanti, in un continuo processo di scambio e di attività. Realizzate in sughero, le sculture o i modelli in scala dello spazio collettivo utopico di queste comunità avrebbero dovuto attivare una discussione pan-regionale e una maggiore comprensione della crisi contemporanea, ecologica ed economica, intorno alle querce da sughero.

For the past few years, Mathis Collins has worked with cork harvesters, local populations of Mediterranean forests and villages and artists, and conceived works that focus on ecology, culture and economy of cork regions. Quercus Suber Utopia is a project for the making of a collective artwork, in the regions of South Europe and North Africa where grows Cork trees. The sculptures produced for Quercus Suber Utopia, based on a discussion on community buildings, would to be exhibited in each of the other participating communities in a continuous process of exchange and activity. Produced with cork, the sculptures or scale models of the communities utopian collective space, was to set a pan-regional discussion and understanding of the contemporary ecological and economical crisis of cork trees.
