Ecological Art - The New Age’s Aesthetics
Artist and designer Marianna Sisson offers a selection of boutique pieces of Ecological Art. "I get my inspiration from exotic cultures, and nature on all its layers, from the world of abstract art, from Kintsugi which is a traditional Japanese art, it even comes from children's fairy tales and from many more" says Sisson.
The element that distinguishes and unites her art, is Sisson's deep affinity for ecological art. This is reflected in her work as an artist, in her thriving work as an Interior Designer and as an expert in real estate branding for businesses, companies and housing complexes.

What is Ecological Art?
Each type of art expresses the artist's worldview, which is related to the artist’s way of life and the global changes that surround. Ecological art is not different in this aspect. It is a natural continuation of the trend that has been taking place all over the world in the last century, that has intensified even more in the recent years.
Ecological art is based on a combination of innovative thinking and reuse of materials. Ecological art is a contemporary issue, developed in response to the ecological crises experienced by nature and humanity. Artists in this genre use it to convey "green" messages based on the desire to create an ecological balance.
Sisson's works embody groundbreaking creativity in them, aiming to raise awareness and proving it can and should be based on the reuse of diverse, available materials (including renewing waste and scrap) and informed use of available natural resources.
Moreover, Sisson attempts to conserve energy, strengthening a lasting relationship between people and their surroundings, reducing waste production and more.
At the same time, Sisson proves that high quality luxury ecological art can be as prestigious and spectacular as any other type of art, and therefore, the Eco Art has earned its name among art lovers, designers, architects and professionals, who recognize the importance of the deep message inherent in the works, alongside their high aesthetic value.

Where can we experience ecological art?
Visual ecological art can often be found in a variety of luxurious galleries throughout Israel and around the world. Exhibitions also display impressive visual artworks, which manage to combine between the important message and the artist’s contemporary work, whose ecological vision leading the path.
Lately, a new genre has emerged, combining the magic of ecological art, the luxurious lifestyle. Luxury living’s owners have discovered the exclusive and unique atmosphere that this art brings up, and regularly open their houses for display by well- known and new young artists.
Owners of private houses, villas, cottages, and wide-open garden houses, serve as permanent or temporary homes for ecological art exhibits, allowing them to achieve several goals at the same time: to meet those whose worldview corresponds to the deep message of the ecological art and to pass on and raise awareness. This is done while holding an intimate or multi-participant event, which allows social and business networking and display of the property.
The role of ecological art in modern architecture
The contemporary architecture is also closely being related to "green" concept. Energy savings, the use of natural sources, using ecological materials for building and preliminary planning which takes in consideration the ecological balance in the property’s environment, are only some of the processes that guide architects in the current era. This is done with the aim of sustaining the modern way of life here and now, but with a future lookout that consider the earth and the future generations’ quality of life. Ecological art integrates with ecological architecture and well complements the aesthetic aspect of this art. Therefore, more and more architects are associated with this genre in aim of maximizing the ecological impact, inside and outside the house.
