Artist CARLOS DEGROOT cultivates life and growth in artificially constructed environments, while also allowing for natural deterioration, decay, and renewal. His ephemeral and entropic landscapes are developed around the life of water and carefully chosen plants; they include a textured range of materials from urban and "natural" terrains. In DEGROOT’s latest work, architecture and agriculture interact to explore the long- and short-term life cycles encountered in our own physical, psychological, and spiritual environment(s).
