NEVERCREW Explores Our Tenuous Relationship with Nature in Huge Murals
""The natural environment appears transformed, filtered, made artificial: it is no longer a space experienced through relationship, but a distant construction.""
""Nature becomes something to observe, arrange, organize, as if it were a separate object rather than a system of which we are an integral part.""
""The animals' very presence on the side of buildings, where they are contained within the bounds of the architecture, is a reminder of the tensions between daily human activities and city infrastructure.""
NEVERCREW, consisting of artists Christian Rebecchi and Pablo Togni, creates large-scale murals that blend nature with urban environments. Their work often features animals merged with objects, exemplified by their mural 'Souvenir' in Vienna, which includes a bear and Arctic elements. The artists express concern over nature being perceived as a distant, artificial construct rather than an integral part of human experience. Their murals serve as a reminder of the fragile balance between humanity and nature, urging a reevaluation of our relationship with the environment.
