As Artist-in-Residence at Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), I work collaboratively with the climate scientists, integrating satellite data, scientific enquiry, and the human response.
Four circular projections overlap in an enclosed space. On the right (right brain), we project animations of the scientists’ climate work, on the left (left brain) the group’s human response, visions of nature and human uses of nature. The right and left projections pass through separate scrims, merge on the far wall, echoing the ancient symbol “Vesica Piscis”; two circles whose edges overlap to form a union of opposites
Two further projectors spread NASA space telescope views across the ceiling, walls, and floor, overlapping earth-level imagery, wrapping it in stars and planets.
This is my response to the world we navigate now: a natural system that sustains us and reacts to us, technology’s growing distance from the world that built it, the disorientation of living inside slow- or fast-moving crises.
I build spaces that ask people to approach an edge, to surrender control and enter the unknown. For Upstate Art Weekend 2026, I built a labyrinth at Goshen Green Farm in New York, from branches gathered on site: two nesting spirals with a single center, open to the public around the clock. To walk it is to enter a mythic structure, not knowing where the path leads. At the center, visitors encounter a place to pause for contemplation, finding materials to write or draw a message to themselves or the community, then walk a full revolution in the opposite direction, emerging somewhere new, the reverse of where they began.
