An earthenware plate from 1661, inscribed with ‘You & i are Earth’ was found preserved by centuries of waste in a London sewer. Made by an unknown creator it has become a moment of internet virality. Acting as both a profound historical artifact and an aestheticized meme, it affirms the cyclical nature of existence, full of contradictions and chance, forming a repeatable mantra and reflection.
You and I are Earth is a sculptural installation that interweaves ceramics, light-based therapies and altered found materials to explore the lived experience of chronic pain, bodily memory, and ecological entanglement. Grounded in the idea of visual generosity, Nicole Levaque’s process-based practice engages material accumulation, biological systems, and the politics of care to examine how pain, both personal and collective, can be rendered visible through sculptural form.
