​

Bloody Eco-System serves as a commentary on the significance of water as a unifying force. At its core, Bloody Eco-system consists of two enigmatic, gender-neutral bodies engaged in a perpetual exchange of fluids. 

 

Drawing inspiration from the insights of Astrida Neimanis in her text ’Bodies of Water,’ the fountain sculpture highlights the idea that water not only sustains our physical bodies but also connects us with other bodies and the broader natural world. Bloody eco-system invites viewers to contemplate the profound interconnectedness that characterizes our existence, transcending traditional boundaries between humans, animals, and nature.

In this unconventional narrative, Bloody Eco-System provides a whimsical and artistic lens through which to explore the fluid bonds that unite us in a world where water plays a pivotal role in our shared experience.

Marie Munk is an interdisciplinary artist, working with sculpture, installation, video, and performance. She is concerned with how technological innovation, where info-tech, biotech, and the commercial world interfere, both characterize and dominate our environment, our behavior, and our bodies. Munk is driven by creating alternative realities that balance the playful, imaginative, and adorable with the eerie, disgusting, and horrifying. With equal parts of sci-fi and humor, Munk comments on a familiar present and uncertain future. She diagnoses, with an uncanny visual language, our society through our relationship to our body. Using silicone as a metaphor for the bodily, Munk creates bizarre hypothetical scenarios, which questions current tendencies in society. ​
