Endless Bounty is an LCD screen surrounded by an elegant frame in laser-sculpted acrylic, where the software recalls the eternal dilemma between urban life and the longing for nature, consumer culture and conservation. The software reveals an endless combination of natural and artificial images. Design products and abstract drawings, urban models and skyscrapers stand side-by-side with the wonders of nature, in such a way that you need more than one lifetime to see all the possible combinations within.
