The artist sees trash as an interesting material because it has a history behind it and it is personal material for everyone. Since 2018, Roimola has channeled her growing anxiety about climate change, mass extinction, the uncertainty of the future and the feeling of powerlessness in the form of the series “Floor is Lava” into a rolling mass that forces the viewer to stop. The black monumental mountain becomes a political landscape as the collection of its materials reveals deep social and economic concerns in each new city and country where it is built. The artist has built eight Floor is Lavas, the most recent two in Colombia 2023.

The work process of the Floor is Lava requires sourcing, collecting and cleaning trash, which turns it into an object in which the intimate circumstances of lives of inhabitants and their societies relation to waste can be seen as well as the way they are treating the weakest of their society.

Floral Rivalry is a commission work for Marimekko that carries on Isola’s experience of nature as a ruler of all beings, even at a time when it has been cornered. Landy's believes nature is reaching towards us, always finding a new way to flourish. Nature does not need us but we need nature.

Material for Floral Rivalry is waste from construction site.
