The adrift of our worlds. Even the most motionless things are in motion.

Abstract

Whether things are alive or not, everything around us is in motion. This work highlights the link between the living and the non-living. It takes as its support the scientific theory of continental drift, represented in animal forms. Animals made of clay, iron ore, but also a lot of other elements found in the forest in Sweden or at home in France. One way to connect these animals to the non-living. Animals represented in the aestheticism of cave arts, in order to place human in this work, thanks to its ability to create myths. But also to show the evolution it has had since the time when they were painting in caves. This evolution does not happen at the same speed for all things, passing through geology, nature and human cultures. The continents are among the most stable bodies on which we build our lives and yet they are adrift. They move slowly, at the speed that our hair grows and have been for millions of years. (inter, 2017) During these millions of years life has evolved in different forms, adapting to a wide variety conditions. About 30,000 years ago human was doing cave art. Technology today is not the same as it was then. By comparison the movement of human cultures is intensely faster than geology
