Gorges Series Clouds Study 1

Gorges is a series of 3D Moving Image pieces that contemplates contemporary technological society’s relationship with the natural world. While clouds are synonymous with digital culture, rendered rivers and mountains are realistically depicted stationary with highly saturated color directly from the RGB scale. The naturalistic compositions ties visually to landscape paintings (both Chinese and Western), play on perception and desire for a relationship with nature; yet it is synthetic, a liminal realm that we experience but cannot touch. Gorges offers an experience of the digital sublime, which overlaps with our perception of the physical landscape, digital space, our relationship with each, and the fundamental questions that follow, peering into the nature of our existence.
