THE ISLAND OF MASTROVITO

An Island Born From 700 Textbooks. What does it take to create a magical indoor island filled with thousands of butterflies soaring above fields of blooming wildflowers, frolicking kittens, and sleepy pandas? You might ask Andrea Mastrovito. He’s executed this feat twice. Once in New York and then a second time in Switzerland.

How did Andrea, like Noah, coax all these beasts into a giant cuddlefest? With plenty of patience, Andrea cut out flora and fauna images from hundreds of repurposed textbooks and carefully arranged the images into beautiful, surreal installations. The work, called The Island of Dr. Mastrovito, takes inspiration from the H.G. Wells novel The Island of Doctor Moreau, a sci fi classic where a mad scientist performs surgeries on animals hoping to create new forms of life. Wells described his book as “an exercise in youthful blasphemy,” calling attention to man’s egotistical fascination with nature and creating life.

Dr. Mastrovito thoughtfully revives these themes by giving textbooks new life using scissors and glue to perform artful and uplifting surgeries. His work starkly contrasts the tone of Well’s text, but in no way plays second fiddle in terms of sheer brilliance. The simplicity of the concept makes the creativity of final execution that much more impressive when the viewer is forced to ask “now why the hell didn’t I do that with my old textbooks?”

“Respect to Nature.”

Humans adapting themselves to nature rather than forcing other species to adapt to us. This is what we must do in the Anthropocene. Trees are the most important three dimensional structures of many ecosystems, and they are the central design features of most permaculture gardens. They provide many products and services to other species, from housing to food (acorns, insects, pollen), shade and shelter from the wind. We ought to respect their importance.

Viennametry, Zsolt Hlinka

Our next station in the search for geometrical shapes and symmetries is Vienna: its architecture, like Budapest, carries both the lasting impression of the past, and also the promise of a bright future, and the unstoppable nature of progress. In my photographs, I have captured this dynamism, so the common topic was chosen to be the upward aspiration. They have been apostrophized to be tunnels, reaching towards the unknown.

Though the objects may seem like stationary and silent, upon closer inspection we can see the memory of countless past events. Not only historical buildings are depicted, which are well versed in the actualities of old times, but their modern pairs are also showcased. These forms are developed by building on their predecessors, respecting or even breaking traditions, which means they cannot be separated from each other. So the pieces of my series are all related and show a process arching over many eras.
