MONOS

PETTER YXELL

Are we alone in or alone with nature?

Monos was imagined as a thatched tetrahedron hermitage to appear during Od Arts Festival on Hardington Moor, a rich island of biodiversity surrounded by agricultural monoculture. The world has changed and the artist, is unfortunately unable to join us from Sweden as planned but will hopefully be with us in the near future.
