"The Power of the Earth"- Finishing Touches

"LE POUVOIR DE LA TERRE" - "THE POWER OF THE EARTH" IS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN ARTIST DAVID POPA AND CHÂTEAU CANTENAC BROWN. THE FINAL RESULT IS AN EPHEMERAL, LAND ART, FRESCO MADE WITH COMPLETELY NATURAL MATERIALS LOCATED WITHIN THE VINEYARDS OF CANTENAC BROWN IN MARGAUX, FRANCE. THE WORK WAS CREATED USING NATURAL EARTH PIGMENTS, CHALK AND THE WINE LEES FROM THE VERY VINEYARDS THE ARTWORK IS CREATED UPON. ESSENTIALLY, A WORK CREATED FROM EARTH AND WINE. THE WORK OF ART IS ARGUABLY ONE OF THE LARGEST WORKS OF ART EVER TO BE CREATED WITH WINE AS THE MAIN MEDIUM. THIS EPHEMERAL WORK OF ART HAD WASHED AWAY NEARLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER ITS CREATION FROM A RAINFALL THE FOLLOWING DAY AFTER THE ARTWORKS COMPLETION. THE MEMORY OF THE WORK IS THUS CAPTURED IN THIS 1/1 NFT, DOCUMENTING THE FINISHING TOUCHES PLACED ON THE MASSIVE FRESCO. THE FINAL MOMENTS SHOW THE ARTIST, DAVID POPA ADDING VARIOUS TENDRILS TO THE EXISTING VINES AS THEY SURGE FROM THE VINEYARDS, BIRTHING INTO HANDS HOLDING THE FRUITS OF THE EARTH. CHÂTEAU CANTENAC BROWN HAS GENEROUSLY OFFERED TO DONATE THEIR SHARE OF THE NFT SALES PROCEEDS (50% OF THE FINAL SALE PRICE) TO THE“CONSERVATOIRE DU LITTORAL". AN ORGANISATION COMMITTED TO PROTECTING THE WILD COASTAL NATURE OF FRANCE.
