Artist Damien Hirst Will Create Installation On CO2 |
|
|
|
LONDON, ENGLAND.- Artist Damien Hirst will create a large installation with empty carbon dioxide cylinders that will portray the amount of carbon dioxide the artist generates ina year (around 15 tons). Hirst supports Future Forests, a firm that advises individuals and groups on how to reduce CO2 emissions. Hirst stated, ’I just like the idea of being able to put something back in the way that Future Forests does. It just seems to be very direct and really straight forward, without being hippified. I was doing some work using gas cylinders and I started thinking about how much space that stuff filled. Then I thought it would be great to make something which physically shows your carbon dioxide emissions - otherwise it’s just a figure on paper.’
