Her work is a fusion of art and science, with copper representing both the malleability of human effort and the responsibility of nations to achieve climate goals. The spiral structure of CO2Z, crafted from a 16-metre copper pipe, serves as a harsh critique of the global community`s inaction.

The installation symbolises the fragile balance betweeen the earth`s resources and the human race`s relentless consumption. Pierick`s use of the chemical periodic rtable highlights the elemental forces at play, while her stark message about greenwashing warns of the dangers of superficial climate solutions.
