Natura fragila a ecosistemului este reprodusa prin folosirea mediului si structurii delicate a sculpturilor de hartie. Forme taiate cu laserul de plante, zambile, pesti si pelicani, sunt folosite pentru a crea forme sculpturale care amintesc de germinarea structurilor de seminte si fac aluzie la imagini de crestere prin asocierea cu mugurii de plante si radacini. Utilizarea imaginilor repetitive prin forme de hartie alaturate imita metodele de clonare, intalnite in experimentele stiintifice folosite in metodele de regenerare.

4_Nesting Ground
NESTING GROUND
Paper, screen –print inks, wicker basket
dim.150 H x 80 W x 30 D
Work is focused on how the problem with water hyacinth can be alleviated; in particular highlighting the natural habitat that must remain in order to attract the migratory birds.
Water hyacinth is known to have a suffocating effect; thus the key to keeping a more stable environment lies beneath the surface. The change in the oxygen levels of the water has serious consequences for the balance of underwater life. Excess water-weeds kill and suffocate the fish population, however, weevils are hard at work controlling the plant growth and keeping the eco-system stable.
The fragile nature of the eco-system is paralleled through the use of a delicate medium and structure in the paper sculptures. Laser cut shapes of plants, hyacinths, fish and pelicans are used to create sculptural forms reminiscent of sprouting seed structures and allude to images of growth through association with plant buds and roots. The use of repetitive imagery through joined paper shapes echoes cloning methods, prevalent in scientific experimentations used in regeneration methods.

Vali a transformat studioul propriu intr-un laborator alchimist, experimentand o perioada lunga de timp pentru a descoperi formula potrivita care ar conferi operelor de arta atat efervescenta intensa a culorii, cat si durabilitate. Ea s-a intalnit cu acest stil de pictura prin scurta descriere a lucrarii lui Leonardo da Vinci „La Bella Principesa”, prezentata de Martin Kemp si Pascal Cotte in cartea cu acelasi nume.
