UNDERCURRENT

I was brought on by (the now defunct) A-DA to develop installations, experience design and oversee the overall creative direction for a new type of event focused on music and climate change

We engaged with 11 musicians and 3 NGOs to express their takes on the climate change issues that were most pressing to them.
Collaborating with the artists, I conceptualized the installations and worked with our production team to oversee the execution. I was also responsible for conceptualizing the theoretical framework and placement of the show with regard to climate change as a nexus of issues affecting individuals, corporations and governments alike.
Some of my tasks also involved developing visual assets for marketing and communications, as well as overseeing the creation of five web based “installations”, i.e interactive micro-sites that gave access to the project to audiences who couldn’t visit the New York venue.
