Enviro-Envision
Enviro-Envision uses data, research, and future scenarios to create visually accurate digital paintings navigated by gallery visitors in an interactive installation. To provoke thought and audience engagement, it offers a non-linear narrative of a changing Santa Cruz coastal redwood ecosystem. Visually and holistically, Enviro-Envision seeks to show the complex interactions that happen within an ecosystem and the effects of human-induced climate change on local environments.

For this project, I created three paintings, using a combination of digital photography and paint and traditional painting techniques, to create a environment scene that would reflect the past, present, and future of a Santa Cruz Coastal Redwood ecosystem. With the help of Alex Jones, the UCSC Campus Natural Reserve Manager, I collaborated with UCSC scientists’ in using their knowledge, research, and data collected in the reserve to inform the paintings. Additionally, I created an interactive projection, coded with Processing, in which the audience will be able to navigate among and interact with the three different paintings.
This project was displayed at the Sixth Annual Climate Change Conference in Santa Cruz. It was also displayed at the 2019 MFA show, at the Digital Arts Research Center at UC Santa Cruz. The project thesis research paper was one of the top-ranked thesis abstracts of 2019 by The Leonardo Abstracts Service (LABS). Enviro-Envision was also featured at the Museum of Art and History in Santa Cruz and at the HubX Open House in February 2020. Watch a video of the project on YouTube.
