<\/figure>\n\nThe integration between man and nature<\/h2>\n\n
Terracotta pots are the protagonists of one of the three installations: Invasi.<\/p>\n\n
The design duo of this installation is made up of Andrea Anastasio and Angela Rui, who\ncollaborated with Euganea Vasi, as the supplier of the pots, and Florim, who created the engraved stoneware lids with messages on environmental awareness.<\/p>\n\n
Invasi is an experiential space that aims to bridge the gap between man and the environment, marked by the presence of assemblages of terracotta pots of various sizes, partly filled with earth and plants, partly empty or transformed into dens for small mammals, birds, or molluscs, which delimit spaces and allow themselves to be absorbed by the landscape, becoming an active part of it.<\/p>\n\n Over time, it will become increasingly difficult to distinguish man\u2019s work from nature\u2019s, inviting visitors to listen differently to the natural space and landscape.<\/p>\n\n The installation takes the form of a natural park of about two thousand square meters where the pots are discovered by people during the walk as if they were archaeological finds.<\/p>\n\n The designed landscape overturns the idea of invasion: here it is nature that reclaims human artefacts.<\/p>\n\n And so, the role of the person also undergoes a reversal: no longer a coloniser of space, but an observer and listener who, through their senses, can get in tune with the environment.<\/p>\n\n Some of the pots have been closed with stoneware lids, waterjet cut, with phrases and data that complete the narrative of the art installation.<\/p>\n\n Being etched, the lids leave space for seeds and seedlings to enter.<\/p>\n\n They are strong messages that report numbers and percentages, of a scientific nature, such as \u201cPlant species produce 70% of the calories consumed by humanity\u201d, \u201c70,000 plant species are utilised for medicine\u201d, \u201c86% of the biomass is made by plants. Animals account for 0.3%\u201d.<\/p>\n\n Alongside these, there are others of a more value-based and motivational nature, such as \u201cPlants are life\u201d, \u201cPlants are conscious\u201d, and \u201cPlants are diffused organization\u201d.<\/p>\n\n They all share the same goal: to generate awareness about the importance of the natural ecosystem for life.<\/p>\n\n You can learn more about this topic and find many other interesting insights in our \u201cMore than a pot\u201d magazine dedicated to terracotta pots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.euganeavasi.it\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/MG_8614-1-1024x683.jpg\")
