Nunes’ series invites a discourse around
conservation and degradation through
the materials it is composed of—like post-
consumer plastic, reconstituted waste
paper, and real vegetation.
Full immersion in each piece spurs
visitors to reflect on nature’s evolving
need for conservation by bestowing its
most present force: the power to heal.
Nunes ultimately prompts reflection
on accessing that healing power of nature
in common metropolitan contexts where
routine access may be challenging.

To see in Montréal
Glacier Cave, Earth Room, Sun Room,
and Moon Room are on view for a limited
time until March 16th at the Age of
Union’s Earth Center. dw
