"Elzinga has forged a career by glorifying the things that rouse his
inner artist. These are the things that capture and reveal nature’s
implacable impetus: decaying tree stumps, invasive species, and
wind-ravaged trees, to name a few." http://landarchs.com/upcycled-art-floyd-elzinga-challenges-perceptions/
I
like the idea of how he uses the natural world as source of inspiration
and how he perceives these "common" objects that are "transformed" yet
placed again "to live on" in these same environment..the idea about
change and the temporal (biodegradable/non-biodegradable). His choice of
material also is quite interesting (iron)as he gets to link it with
political/social issues. His concerns are simplistic and he conceptualise ideas and thoughts in a free-flowing manner.
