Making Eden Multiplanetary.mp4.obj
  VIDEO INSTALLATION | run time: approx. 2 minutes | 2019 

​

Making Eden Multiplanetary.mp4.obj is a three channel video installation of 3D animations. The form of the piece is inspired by early renaissance tryptic alterpieces, like The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch. This work looks at the movement towards interplanetary travel as a means to escape the crumbling ecosystem of earth piloted by SpaceX. The salvific aims of technology ultimately, only draw us  towards the end-time like conditions within our lifetime, the fully manufactured imminent apocalypse of climate change. 

​

This work was created at a time when Elon Musk was heralded by liberals and conservatives alike as a messiahs in our age. This grimly foreshadowed his rise to power within the Trump administration.
