ABOUT IN HOT WATERS

IN HOT WATERS (2022-ongoing) is a decentralized data visualisation and simulation project illustrating the impact of human activities on the environment. The project is an ongoing collection of works using live climate data to visualise the effect of rising global average temperature. Using a still life of an everyday scene, the objects in frame are constantly changing, responding to the change in global average temperature.

Free admission, registration required.
