“Sky Wave” & Anthropocene are animated visuals using digital drawings and code. This is part of a larger project
on world building. I'm imagining the bleakness of a world post climate destruction. Humans have achieved interstellar travel but at what cost? We've created
ripples in the fabric of time and space as we know it, thus creating a world where the veils between universes are blurred. The works are intended to leave the viewer feeling and hearing the empty echoes of humanity's
dying days. Link
