“Capture the moment” !A perfect symphony. Catch and become caught. Each

thing in its time. Life is a movement. A circle… a life cycle. A web can be like a disease. It can infiltrate and take over… spreading in a very fast speed. Stopping every movement. Freezing the moment.

RIKKE DARLING : INSTALLATION

It is all about life. The cycle of nature - around and within us. How nature are communicating. How our cells are communicating to keep the body healthy. !Everything are constantly sending out and receiving messages/signals. But what if a cell fails to send out a signal at the proper time? Or what if a signal doesn't reach its target? What if a target cell does not respond to a signal, or a cell responds even though it has not received a signal? !These are just a few ways in which communication can go wrong, resulting in disease. In fact, most diseases involve at least one breakdown in cell communi-cation. This artwork are focusing on how nature are depending on a perfect system, and how cancer cells can disrupt this communication, how they can infiltrate and take over the communication and spread in a very fast speed.
