Entree libre. Contact 06 84 05 04 12 Additionally, Dion Laurent has been invited to perform EarthMan in Brighton, Royal Tunbridge Wells and Clapham Common in London on June 21 as part of the Revolve Eco-Rally. EarthMan is a performance piece which allows the viewer to consider our global biosphere on a human scale. The Texan-based artist, Dion Laurent, blends art & science by appearing in public places wearing a self-sustaining suit capable of maintaining a human in otherwise unlivable environments on earth or even in outer space. The EarthMan suit consists of a solar-powered system including fans, air ducts, lights, terrarium and plants that reproduces the symbiotic relationship between humans and plants through the exchange of CO2 and oxygen. http://www.dionlaurent.com/earthman.htm http://www.dionlaurent.com
