Mimodek is an interactive-evolving and changing 'living' system, based on the principles of the natural world that 'grows' from the fabric of the city.
As all living systems in nature, Mimodek reflects its own environment.

It is a site-specific work, formed by unique, location – related data sources and by the behaviour of the visitors. Every installation will evolve into a unique 'organism', reflecting its location.

Mimodek does not visually mimic nature, but it introduces the city to some of the natural elements that are lacking.

Mimodek highlights the delicate relation between human beings and their environment, as well as their connection to the other living beings with whom they share this environment.
