Gobo Light + Sound Installation at Kelowna Art Walk
With increasing temperatures brought about by climate change and fires in our local area, our natural environment is under threat. This work references the effect we have on our environment and how the way we interact with nature can have consequences.
This is a narrative work, a collaged landscape of the Okanagan depicting water, trees, and animals that come alive and shows the landscape changing over time due to possible drought, fires and other consequences of the changing climate, showing the landscape degrading and burning.
About the Artists
This is an extension of an augmented reality piece that was in Ebb and Flow at the Kelowna Art Gallery, an exhibition curated by Kirsteen McCulloch, Executive Director at ARTSCO. Read More Here.
It is initiative in collaboration with the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies (FCCS) at UBC Okanagan, and the Arts Council of the Central Okanagan (ARTSCO), with the support of the City of Kelowna. Dr. Miles Thorogood, Dr. Aleksandra Dulic and Dr. Yujie Gao professors in FCCS, worked with Kirsteen McCulloch at ARTSCO to design the site-specific anti-structure and cutting-edge software to make the images come alive.
