In 2009 arte_FITS.FOUNDATION became interested in two young artists who, at the time, were working on their Masters of Arts degrees in Valencia, Spain. Fate was on our side once we found out they were Puerto Ricans. Knowing this was an opportunity the Foundation could not pass, when the twins, Javier & Jaime Su\u00e1rez, returned to Puerto Rico in December 2009, the brainstorming of a utopian project began to unfold. After combing the \u201ccanvas\u201d of Dorado and deciding how the twins would create the artwork, the concept was finally developed: an artistic intervention with a \u201csand trap\u201d at the famous East Golf Course at Dorado Beach \u2013 the \u201cMona Lisa of golf courses\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Nevertheless, the ephemeral nature of the work led to its dissolution into the earth leaving us with the inclination to preserve the work thru photographic mediums. arte_FITS.FOUNDATION, along with photographers Johnny Betancourt, Trist\u00e1n Reyes, and Vladimir Ceballos, documented the artists\u2019 performance process in order to properly demonstrate the evolution of the intervention.<\/span>
\nHumans\u2019 relationship with nature ranges from contemplation & harmonious use to exploitation & destruction. So, although the interventions with nature may sometimes be negative, it is possible that occasionally they can turn out positive. By intervening through art one is given the opportunity to ask:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is on the surface of what is called nature and what lies beneath it?\u201d\u00a0This is the way arte_FIST relates with nature. With respect, harmony and creativity, in the quest of living between the eternal and ephemeral.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
