Andre Woodward works set in the mid of art and science. He blurs the line of life and art, by creating micro-environments of sound and light to maintain and support living plants. Living and non living systems coexists in environments made of bits of asphalt and concrete, sounds recorded from roadways together with weeds and bugs into a structured system of water, light and sound.
Timers simulate night and day alternation, and the plants are left on their own to grow by retrieving resources from their surroundings. His work demonstrates how natural living systems can adapt to the systems created by humans. He says about his works:“It’s representational of an evolution of everything".
