This series is a collaboration between Diane Burko and Anna Tas, an artist whose métier is “lenticular.” Together they combined Tas’ technical knowledge and aesthetic skills, with Burko’s on-site experience of bearing witness in the field and research labs. These circular presentations are referential - providing multiple interpretations spanning a submarine’s “portal” view under water, a satellite’s aerial perspective to a microscope’s revealing lens. Each piece utilizes the interactive nature of metaphor, inviting the viewer to contemplate and discover. The seductive beauty furthers the conversation about how the natural world is impacted by climate change. The series draws from drone and go-pro footage shot on location, as well as material provided by scientists at the Hawaiian Institute of marine biology and Scripps Institute of Oceanography.
