For Simeti, drawing often represents a preliminary space of observation and transformation: landscapes, forms, and figures that take shape on paper before becoming sculptures and installations. The tapestry also originates from this same process, developed from a watercolor created in one of the notebooks the artist constantly carries with him, like a mobile archive of images, intuitions, and visual memories.
Forestry machines used to fell, uproot, and strip trees become the central iconographic core of the project. Tools designed to take control and dominance through extremely precise movements here assume an almost emotional and bodily presence. These machines seem to transform into hybrid creatures that grasp, embrace, and wound at the same time, making visible the thin line separating care, control, and devastation.
