THE BEAUTIFUL GREEN GAME IS A BOTANICAL ART EXHIBITION SHOWCASING PORTRAITS OF FOOTBALL PLAYERS IN PRESERVED NATURAL MOSS. THESE WORKS CELEBRATE THE DIVERSITY OF OUR WORLD AND ITS UNIFICATION THROUGH ART, SPORT AND NATURE.

IN HONOR OF “EL CLASICO”, REAL MADRID VS. FC BARCELONA’S HISTORIC MATCH IN MIAMI ON JULY 29, 2017, ARTISTS PALOMA TEPPA AND ANDREW ANTONACCIO CREATED A FIRST-OF-ITS KIND EXHIBITION FEATURING A COLLECTION OF PLAYER PORTRAITS MADE OF NATURAL MOSS.
THIS COLLABORATIVE ART EXHIBITION EXPLORES THE INTEGRATION BETWEEN ANTONACCIO’S OPTICAL ART TECHNIQUES AND TEPPA’S WHIMSICAL WORLD OF PLANTS.
Plant the Future and 2ALAS designed a series of framed artwork using linear techniques formed by preserved natural moss. The subtlety of the lines create soft facial features that appear through the lens of a camera or from looking from a distance.
