Uku Sepsivart has stopped having dystopian visions about the world for a moment. He is dreaming about an utopian world. He believes that there can be a world where human animal and other kind of life organisms are able to coexist in a symbiosis. It seems as all animals have their own niche, an activity they are performing. He is thinking about what could be the human role in the ecosystem. Humans are working busy as a bee but being quite unsure about their aims. It can’t be just production excess of commodities and pollution. The background of every kind of ecological thinking is actually to save human itself from poisoning through saving it’s environment and other species. What could be the role of humans? Maybe it could be being the master of nature and attempt to perform the difficult task of trying to find a balance in everything? Not by confining and consuming the other species but providing space for them and integrating them in our life.
Uku Sepsivart has worked with
beavers and garden
birds before. This time he tries to collaborate with
bees and wonders about how the bees might see humans and their activities.
Outcome of this journey will be presented on METSIK / WILD on July 22nd 2018
