 James Peterson‘s ambitious installation Sessilanoid (a sum of all parts) is comprised of plastic formed cells that interconnect, creating dynamic patterns over the gallery walls, ceiling and floor. This compelling piece hypothesizes what happens as synthetic lifeforms take the place of the organic. Peterson’s convincing use of lighting, technology and nature inspired forms create a potent context for his exploration of pollution and sustainability. Sessilanoid approximates growth of synthetic barnacles over the gallery.
