Project description

The piece employs the game Jenga to illustrate a dangerous metaphor: hands relentlessly pull out wooden blocks, representing global resources, until the globe balanced atop the structure plunges into the ocean. It's a statement on how humanity's drive for civilizational progress is over-exploiting resources, triggering global warming and rising sea levels that drastically reduce the survival space for life on Earth.
