The ecosystems of the Earth are all interconnected as nature is in constant communication with itself. An ecosystem is defined as a biological community where flora, fauna, and other beings, in relation to weather and landscapes, harmoniously work together to form all the necessary factors for life. Likewise, all organisms, including humans, have ecosystems living within and surrounding them, dependent upon aspects, either directly or indirectly. Such a rich fusion of transmuted information is the inspiration behind artist Natalia Kapchuk’s art piece Gilded Planet.
Covered in a vail of gold leaf, incorporating elements like pigments, natural stones, and resi-crete, Kapchuk’s piece Gilded Planet depicts the wealth that is the Earth’s biotic and abiotic factors, like plants, animals, rocks, and various climate zones.
