DanieI Popper uncovers the essence of healing, community, and inspiration through his art.
The idea of creating the Earth Sentinels as guardians for the city reflects a sense of shared responsibility and protection, not only for Nuanu but also for the Earth. Designed for greenery and plants to grow into them over time, this integration with nature represents a long-term vision for the artwork, emphasising the connection between art and the environment. The concept of project mapping and transforming the work at night suggests a dynamic aspect to the art, adding an interactive and immersive element to the statues. Popper invites you to spend more time in your heart, as this is where true inspiration can occur, emphasising the healing and inspirational qualities of art for both the artist and the audience.
