Nature in Motion (2025)
Description
Nature in Motion is a kinetic sculpture project that explores how human–robot interaction can facilitate biophilic experiences and a sense of connection with nature. The installation invites people to sit and observe, offering a moment of focus, inspiration, and immersion that supports mental restoration. This was a collaborative project with Rachael Sheilds, and funded by Marie Christine Kohler Art Fellowship.
