“As Close As We Get LXV” (2022) and “As Close As We Get LXVII” (2022) are presented in connection with SUPERFLEX’s current large-scale installation “There Are Other Fish In The Sea” at Palazzo Strozzi in Florence.⁠

As sea levels continue to rise, human buildings will soon be underwater. For this reason, it is important to consider the needs and desires of marine life in our construction decisions. Fish are the future occupants of our houses. "As Close As We Get" is a series of sculptures that function as art for humans and as potential homes for fish. Because ocean biodiversity thrives around structures with an abundance of surface area, the modular building blocks of As Close As We Get are designed to feature many flat, irregularly-sized planes. Each sculpture consists of multiple stacked building blocks, forming artworks that can be transformed into underwater infrastructure.

Further, "As Close As We Get" is currently part of a scientific experiment to test the sustainability of materials for underwater construction. At the moment, a version is installed in the harbor in Copenhagen, and scientists are monitoring the materials’ reaction to the water over time. The knowledge generated from this research will contribute to SUPERFLEX’s larger Superrev project, which is a collaborative plan to build 55 km2 of reef in the Danish oceans, approximately the amount of reef that’s been removed by stonefishing over the last century.
