An Arctic Intermedia Installation
Kat ROMA GREER Alan OLEJNICZAK Rachel HONNERY
Summer’s End is a 15 minute, three-channel multi-sensory, multi-disciplinary installation that transforms captured artistic responses into an immersive experience of mourning, reflection, and ecological awakening. Through a curation of Arctic visualisations, original poetry, and a bespoke commissioned musical composition, the project bridges the gap between empirical understanding and emotional comprehension of climate disruption and its effect on our oceans, including shifting of currents, contribution to ocean acidification, wildlife dependent on sea ice, perishing and disrupting coastal communities. In response to the urgent need for ocean restoration and biodiversity protection, Summer’s End engages multiple sensory modalities, bridging the gap between empirical understanding and emotional comprehension, inspiring a sustained desire for preservation and action. Tolstoy wrote: “One of the first conditions of happiness is that the link between man and nature shall not be broken.” This work contributes to reforging that link.
