ABOUT THE PROJECT :: FLOATING POINTIn her project, Floating Point, the artist proposes to study trans-disciplinary methods of information analysis in the context of making pollution data accessible and informative to the general public—through art and performance. The broader goal of the proposed research is to creatively design art that promotes sustainable and ecologically responsible modes of living, and a general awareness of both local and global water quality issues. |
