biodiverse/earth at Imperial College Lates

  • imperial college london (map)

We are pleased to announce that our biodiverse/earth commission created with Jenna Lawson and John Hooper will be shown again at Imperial College London as part of Imperial Lates.

our biodiverse/earth commission by Imperial Lates explores human impact on the forests of Costa Rica. we present biologist Jenna Lawson’s findings as an immersive audio-visual experience, journeying from tropical rainforests untouched by human hands to disturbed plantations of palm and teak, where a haunting silence exists due to the loss of life as natural forest ecosystems are removed

it is our hope that from this experience, you can better understand the sheer diversity of life in our world, and the startling loss when we destroy these incredible ecosystems for everyday products that we all use, while immersing yourself in the sounds of the natural world. the results from Lawson’s research will be used to understand the threats that exist and guide the protection and restoration of native forests, connect forest fragments and increase populations of the spider monkey.
