The sculptural installation Still Drive by Stelios Markou Ilchuk (Cyprus, 1993) takes evolution as its starting point. Within the work, Ilchuk explores the influence that all life forms have on each other, and how they are shaped through complex relationships. As individual species, humans may have drifted apart from each other, but they still share an experience of interconnectedness with the world. Within Still Drive, Ilchuk reveals a bigger, more complicated picture at play, where humanity’s fabricated eminence and augmented realities are not separate, but part of the same process. Each sculpture explores future-past scenarios where the artificial and the organic blur into one, and the division between humanity and nature is put into question.
